What is being bought

Development Partner for Keyworker Housing at Rotherhithe New Road and 25 Cherry Garden Street Southwark Council is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) to inform the development of its upcoming procurement for a Development Partner that will be responsible for designing, delivering and operating 100% affordable key worker housing across two sites at Rotherhithe New Road and 25 Cherry Garden Street. This engagement aims to understand current market capability, ability to meet the delivery model, innovation opportunities and commercial considerations to support the design of a proportionate and competitive procurement procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. This notice does not formally commence a procurement process. Participation in the PME is voluntary and will not confer any advantage or disadvantage in any future tender. Scope of the Requirement The council intends to procure a Development Partner to undertake (indicative scope): • Appointment of a full design team to develop the design of the Key Worker Housing sites through RIBA stages 2 to 4. • Construction of the Key Worker Housing blocks on both sites. • Operation and Management of the Key Worker Housing blocks for the duration of the lease via a Registered Provider. • Social Value The final scope may be refined following PME.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction work (45000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 457,2143 median · 22.7 average (1,246 of 7,214 with a bid count)3.4 average (1,374 of 7,214 with named award suppliers)Not published

Similar published value (0.5×–2×)7448.5 median · 8.5 average (2 of 744 with a bid count)1.5 average (2 of 744 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
