Who won: 291 Harrow Road Pre-Construction Services, Enabling and Main Works

About this contract

Westminster City Council is seeking to procure a Main Contractor for the 291 Harrow Road development. The Project will deliver 144 new homes in the centre of London. A total of 48 will be affordable homes, 24 will be Adult Social Care units at social rent and 72 homes will be available for private sale. The Project will comprise three buildings at 15, 10 and five storeys in height and will aim for an ambitious carbon reduction through a passive design, a fabric first approach and the use of air source heat pumps and solar panels to maximise the use of renewable energy. The Authority’s aim is for the Project to achieve a 70% sitewide reduction over the baseline for the proposed development, far exceeding Greater London Authority’s target of 35%. The successful supplier will undertake the preconstruction services prior to commencing enabling works and main works, following the successful approval of the Gateway 2 application. The values of the works are estimates based on tendered values and known provisional sums, with the final values to be confirmed during the PCSA period.
