UK Public Sector Contracts & Tenders

TfGM is seeking the appointment of a residential funder to fund, deliver and operate a mid-density apartment scheme in Bury town centre, to be delivered as part of the wider redevelopment of Bury Interchange. The proposed tenure mix has not yet been decided and is one of the matters on which prospective tenderers will be invited to put forward proposals. TfGM is agnostic regarding the final tenure mix. Bidders should note that the Planned Procurement Notice published on 26 June 2026 (notice identifier: 2026/S 000-060531) described the Opportunity as an affordable rental residential development. TfGM has since adopted a tenure-agnostic approach, please refer to the Procurement Documentation for further information.

There are 12 sites currently included within this contract. The sites are spread across the entirety of the Greater Manchester region. The current door access equipment that is in place are the Netgenium AL370x IP controllers and HID readers; Tenderers are able to reuse this existing on-site equipment where appropriate, with any necessary upgrades OR Tenderers will need to replace some or all of the required equipment with hardware of their choice. Tenderers will need to consider which method drives efficiency/savings/best aligns with TfGM's requirements and/ or desired outcomes. From the start and during the contract term, the Tenderer will be responsible for any required updating or upgrading of the system that they employ. The Tenderer must be able to provide BOTH of the services themselves or via a suitable subcontractor that they will manage and be responsible for during the contract term. This is a 3+1+1 term contract, leading to a potential 5-year contract duration. The new contract will mobilise in late 2026 / early 2027, when the current contract is due to expire. the new contract may comment scenarios document). TfGM are looking for Tenderers that can provide the full service with value for money (with price being a 40% weighing on this tender).
