In plain English
Stonewater Limited wants a main contractor to build 39 homes on a greenfield site off Stoke Road, Henlade TA3 5FF, extending an existing 26-home development. The homes are a mix of flats, bungalows and houses, with the tenure likely to be social rented or a mix of rented and shared ownership. The contract is valued at £10,300,000, is being tendered before planning consent is granted, and work is expected to start by mid-March 2027.
What the buyer wants
• Your proposed design and construction periods, showing you have the capacity to start works by mid-March 2027, plus a list of any clauses in the proposed build contract you want to discuss before signing • Acting as Principal Designer, discharging all planning conditions (including pre-commencement conditions), and including the £100,000 and £50,000 provisional sums in your tender for site-based and additional works • Meeting the 'Silver' Energy Hierarchy standard under clause 2.58, a minimum SAP rating of 86.5, a target EPC rating of 'A', and a Pre-Manufactured Value of 55, which the notice describes as essential
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The £10.3 million contract value, the Principal Designer role, the essential Pre-Manufactured Value of 55, the minimum SAP rating of 86.5, and the need to show capacity to start by mid-March 2027 are likely to rule out most small businesses, and tendering costs will not be reimbursed if planning consent is refused.
Always check the tender documents.
