Opportunity overview

Each Development (an individual Development Contract) is for the provision of social housing units in the West Belfast Area by means of design and build, where the Developer provides the land, designs, constructs and completes the scheme for Apex in accordance with the DfC Housing Association Guide, Employers Design Brief and statutory body requirements. Apex will consider mixed tenure developments that is where some of the homes are designed and built to be social housing and some may be affordable standard homes. In the interests of providing an efficient housing management service, any one site must provide a minimum of 10 units. The developers proposals must ensure each site includes a range of house types. It is a normal assumption from NIHE that 10% of any development should consist of standard wheelchair accommodation. The estimated value is indicative only. The final contract value will depend on the site tendered, achievable development capacity, final approved housing mix and tendered Development Price per Unit. No minimum expenditure or contract value is guaranteed.

Procedure

Features
This procurement will be conducted as a competitive flexible procedure under section 20(2)(b) of the Procurement Act 2023. It may comprise the following stages. Stage 1 – PSQ and initial tender stage Developers must submit: • their completed PSQ Response; and • their initial Tender Response, comprising the required quality, social value and pricing submissions. PSQ Responses will first be assessed against the applicable conditions of participation on a pass/fail basis. The Tender Response of a Developer that does not satisfy the conditions of participation will not proceed to evaluation against the award criteria. The compliant Tender Responses will then be evaluated using the published award criteria, methodology and weightings. Following Stage 1, Apex may either: • proceed directly to award; or • conduct the optional Stage 2 described below. Stage 2 – Clarification, refinement and negotiation stage (optional) Apex may invite all Developers whose PSQ Responses have passed and whose Tender Responses remain compliant to participate in a further clarification, refinement and negotiation stage. Before that stage commences, Apex will notify the participating Developers of: • the scope of the stage; • the matters that may be clarified, refined or negotiated; • the process and timetable; and • whether revised or final Tender Responses must be submitted. Where final Tender Responses are required, they will be evaluated using the published award criteria and weightings. Apex will treat participating Developers equally and will not permit a modification amounting to a substantial modification of the procurement under section 31 of the Procurement Act 2023.
