The brief

ForHousing Limited (the “authority”) wish to procure a main contractor to deliver the Bowlers Yard scheme located in the Northern Quarter, Manchester on a fixed price design and build basis, with the intention of starting the enabling works in January 2023 and the development works from March 2023 (the “Contract”).

The site, which boarders the Metrolink Ashton line in New Islington, has already been purchased (in September 2022) and is in the ownership of ForHousing.

Planning permission for 62 apartments was granted in August 2020, no planning changes are proposed to the current scheme.

Properties are being developed for Shared Ownership and the letting and management of the properties will be undertaken by the Group’s commercial subsidiary ForLiving.

The owner of the site, ForHousing will be the ultimate client for the scheme, though it will be contracting through the ForViva’s Group’s development vehicle, ForViva DevCo Limited.

Accordingly, ForViva DevCo will be the “Employer”
