What is being bought

Published requirement description

Buckinghamshire Council (the Council) is conducting a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) exercise to understand market appetite and inform the Council’s strategy for a long-term regeneration partnership for Aylesbury Town Centre.

The Council invites expressions of interest from experienced developers, investors and regeneration partners with the capability, track record and resources to participate in a significant, multi-phase regeneration programme. Responses will form an essential part of the Council's consideration of its procurement strategy, commercial arrangements, and delivery approach.

The Council is considering a period of 10 years for the initial term of the Contract, with the ability to extend by a further 5 years.

This PME notice is issued solely for preliminary market engagement purposes and does not constitute a call for competition.

Proposition

The Council launched the Aylesbury Investment Prospectus at UKREiiF in May 2026, setting out its vision and ambition for Aylesbury Town Centre. A copy of the Prospectus is published alongside the PME documents. Through the proposed partnership, the Council intends to facilitate the transformation of key town centre assets, supporting long-term economic growth, investment, and regeneration within Buckinghamshire's county town.
