The Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) Accommodation plans to develop eight model homes in the Southwest of England, utilising the Ministry of Defence’s new house type designs.

The proposed site for this housing development is located off Sling Road, approximately 300 metres north of the main established areas of Bulford Camp, Wiltshire.

The Defence Housing Strategy 2025 (DHS 25) sets out the Government’s commitment to significantly improve housing for Service Families, including the construction of new homes.

The proposed development at Bulford would be the first project delivered utilising the new house designs under DHS 25.

Initially, the homes would serve as Portfolio Model Homes, showcasing various new designs and layouts.

This would provide families and other stakeholders with the opportunity to review and offer feedback.

These model homes would also establish the building specifications and standards expected from future delivery partners, representing a key milestone in the nationwide rollout of the next generation of Service Family Accommodation (SFA).

The development is expected to include additional features such as environmental mitigation measures, road and infrastructure improvements, parking facilities, Electric Vehicle charging points, smart technology, renewable and energy-saving resources, utilities and service connections, ecological enhancements, and measures to support biodiversity.

A planning application has been submitted, and further details, including the new house type designs, would be provided during the tendering process.

A webinar is planned for 16th April 2026 at 2pm where DIO Accommodation will present the house-type designs, detail plans for the Southwest site, and outline the wider potential for constructing homes at a larger-scale on MOD land, using MOD’s standardised house type designs.

There will be opportunity for webinar attendees to ask questions and feedback on the procurement requirement and the proposed wider plans.

If you would like to attend this webinar, please reply to DIOComrcl-Major-Programmes@mod.gov.uk by Monday 13th April to reserve your space.

Joining instructions will then be issued to you.

Note that it is our intention to run this opportunity through Homes England Dynamic Purchasing System via Lot: Small Residential, South West.

To have the opportunity to tender for the resulting contract, suppliers must be registered for this specific lot on the Homes England Dynamic Purchasing System.
