Westwick Row - Main Contractor Procurement

Description

The Crown Estate is seeking early market insight to inform the procurement of a Contractor for Westwick Row, a new-build residential development of approximately 75 homes in Leverstock Green, Hemel Hempstead. The Crown Estate has partnered with SME developer TOWN. ​The scheme includes a mix of cohousing, build-to-rent and discounted market sale homes, delivered to high sustainability standards including low-carbon construction, high fabric performance and a timber frame superstructure. ​The Crown Estate and TOWN intend to procure a contractor through an Open Competitive Flexible Procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. This Preliminary Market Engagement exercise does not commit the Crown Estate to a particular contracting route; instead, it seeks feedback from the market on capacity, capability, risks, opportunities, and preferred contracting approaches (e.g. two-stage Design & Build or Management Contracting).​
