Old Oak Private Sector Partner Procurement
Authority: The Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) (Public body)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThis notice is to inform the market of a procurement process to appoint a Private Sector Partner ("PSP") to support Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation ("OPDC") to deliver the comprehensive regeneration at Old Oak. OPDC proposes to work with the PSP through a long-term Joint Venture ("JV") which will oversee and manage the delivery of the mixed-use development throughout its lifecycle in accordance with the vision and strategic objectives for Old Oak.
Old Oak comprises around 31 hectares of brownfield land. The regeneration of Old Oak is expected to deliver approximately 8,000 homes, including affordable housing, alongside up to 200,000 sq m of commercial and community space, the creation of a new canal-side neighbourhood and a major town centre, and new community facilities, parks, and open spaces.
Anchored by the new Old Oak Common station where High Speed 2, the Elizabeth line, the Great Western Mainline and Heathrow Express all intersect, Old Oak will become a major new gateway between London and the rest of the country, presenting a unique opportunity to deliver a new urban district in West London.
More information about the opportunity is set out in the associated tender documents, including the Memorandum of Information which can be accessed via the SAP Ariba procurement portal, instructions for access can be found below.
Associated tender documents, including the Memorandum of Information and Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) are being provided at the same time as this tender notice via the SAP Ariba procurement portal. For access instructions, see the Submission section below.
OPDC undertook early market engagement, details of which were set out in the Prior Information Notice (PIN) published on 22 October 2024, notice identifier: 2024/S 000-034203. Two rounds of one-to-one meetings were then held between November 2024 and February 2025. The documents issued to participants and a summary report setting out the outcomes of the engagement are available on the procurement portal.
- Not divided into lots: This contract is not being awarded by reference to lots. The integrated nature of the JV partnership model means it is not suitable for division into separate lots, as the PSP must take a holistic approach across all workstreams and phases of the regeneration programme.
- How the procedure runs: Interested parties should refer to the Instructions to Participate, available from the Procurement Portal for further details. The first stage of the procurement process will require interested parties to complete and return a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) and an Initial Tender response. OPDC will evaluate the responses received in accordance with the criteria and methodology set out in the procurement documents. In short, the PSQ responses will be evaluated on a pass/fail basis only. However, the Initial Tender responses will be scored so that the Tenderers can be ranked. The Award Criteria for the Initial Tender are: People and Place: 20% Social Value: 15% Partnership and Collaboration: 25% Delivery: 20% Value Creation: 20% Initial Tender submissions will be expected to demonstrate both relevant experience and the tenderers proposed approach. The three highest scoring Tenderers from the Initial Tender evaluation will be invited to the Dialogue and Final Tender Stage. OPDC reserves the right to invite a fourth tenderer to the Dialogue and Final Tender Stage if, in the evaluation of the Initial Tenders, the difference in the total score achieved by the third and fourth placed suppliers is 5% or less following evaluation of the Initial Tender responses. OPDC will issue an Invitation to Dialogue to the shortlisted Tenderers. Tenderers will be invited to a number of dialogue sessions which will primarily be structured around delivery, financial and legal related matters. Throughout the Dialogue Stage, OPDC expects to request interim working papers and draft financial appraisals to help inform dialogue. The requirements for these will be set out in the Invitation to Dialogue and any such interim papers will not be evaluated. With respect to Legal Dialogue meetings, OPDC will issue draft Heads of Terms at the start of the Dialogue Stage to all Tenderers. Dialogue will be predominantly conducted for the purposes of agreeing the Heads of Terms, but OPDC reserves the right to issue full drafting relating to all or parts of the transaction documents as part of the dialogue process if required to provide clarity on particular points. The Invitation to Submit Final Tenders ("ISFT") will be issued when OPDC is able to identify solutions that are capable of acceptance. The ISFT Stage will involve the preparation and submission of Final Tenders and the evaluation of the Final Tenders. The Award Criteria for the Final Tender are: People and Place: 15% Social Value: 10% Partnership and Collaboration: 10% Delivery: 20% Legal: 15% Value Creation: 30% Following evaluation, and identification of the most advantageous tender, OPDC intends to hold a "preferred bidder" stage with the Tenderer who submitted the most advantageous tender prior to entry into contract so as to clarify and confirm commitments made and for limited post tender negotiation. OPDC reserves the right to vary the procurement process set out above and in the procurement documents at any stage in the procurement. Tenderers are reminded that OPDC may modify the terms of this document and other associated tender documents in accordance with Section 31 (Modifying a Competitive Procurement) of the Procurement Act 2023. OPDC intends to rely on Section 24 (Refining Award Criteria) of the Procurement Act 2023 to add additional detail and sub-criteria to existing award criteria as the procedure progresses through its stages. In addition, there will be differences between the award criteria applied when assessing Initial Tenders and Final Tenders. OPDC may also refine the award criteria to be applied to Final Tenders after carrying out dialogue with suppliers. NOTES: • The "total value (estimated)" stated in this notice is the estimated gross development value of the development. • The "tender submission deadline" stated in this notice is the deadline for the submission of the participation and initial tenders. This tender notice is being used for the purpose of inviting suppliers to submit a request to participate in the competitive flexible procedure. Tenders may be submitted electronically, and the tender notice and associated tender documents are all provided at the same time as the tender notice. The applicable minimum tendering period is therefore 25 days pursuant to section 54(4) of the Procurement Act 2023. Whether this notice is being used to reserve a contract to supported employment providers or public service mutuals: No.
- No preliminary market engagement: A preliminary market engagement notice was not published under section 17(1)(a) of the Procurement Act 2023 because OPDC's preliminary market engagement commenced before the Act came into force on 24 February 2025. A Prior Information Notice was published on 22 October 2024, Notice identifier: 2024/S 000-034203. OPDC considers that publication of the Prior Information Notice and the market engagement undertaken satisfied the underlying policy objectives of section 17.
