What is being bought

Published requirement description

TfGM is seeking the appointment of a residential funder to fund, deliver and operate a mid-density apartment scheme in Bury town centre, to be delivered as part of the wider redevelopment of Bury Interchange. The proposed tenure mix has not yet been decided and is one of the matters on which prospective tenderers will be invited to put forward proposals. TfGM is agnostic regarding the final tenure mix.

Bidders should note that the Planned Procurement Notice published on 26 June 2026 (notice identifier: 2026/S 000-060531) described the Opportunity as an affordable rental residential development. TfGM has since adopted a tenure-agnostic approach, please refer to the Procurement Documentation for further information.

  • How the procedure runs: TfGM expects the process to include an Invitation to Participate stage, shortlisting of bidders, an Invitation to Tender stage for shortlisted tenderers, structured meetings to develop proposals, a call for Final Tenders, evaluation to identify the Most Advantageous Tender, a preferred tenderer / contract finalisation stage and contract signature.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 25 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
