WO1603 SWPA (South West Procurement Alliance) Preliminary Market Engagement Event
Main contract details
<p>Wiltshire Council has recently completed a tender with Magna Housing Association (Based in Dorset) to award a 3 Year MMC contract to Rollalong (Off-site Manufacturer – based in Wimborne, Dorset). The tender was completed through a Framework, conducted by South West Procurement Alliance (SWPA).</p>
<p>There is now an opportunity for you to join a new Framework being delivered by SWPA to complement the 3 Year MMC contract by delivering the Principal Contractor role. The 3 Year contract with Rollalong, offers a pipeline of just under 1000 homes over the life of the contract and we are now looking to engage a Principal Contractor to work with Wiltshire, Magna and Rollalong to deliver the essential groundworks to bring these homes forward. We are inviting other clients, SME principle contractors, architects and employers agents to find out more about our work and what work we will be looking to commission from companies like yours as part of our ambitious plans across Dorset Somerset and Wiltshire.</p>
<p>If you are a client and want to collaborate with like- minded experienced clients to deliver net zero and zero carbon in use homes now, using the latest precision engineered factory techniques and our Easy as 1,2,3 procurement from your local regional factory, come along and talk to us the procurement professionals at South West Procurement Alliance (SWPA) and representatives from the Factory itself.</p>
<p>This is an informal event to share what we have learned in delivering homes for sale and rent in the affordable housing sector and to see what this local regional capability could mean for your business. The new approach to delivering high quality, zero carbon homes has been led by Wiltshire Council and Magna Housing, enabled by a Procurement vehicle (SWPA) to ease the procurement process. By engaging in a Framework, you will open your business up to a number of opportunities. Wiltshire Council and Magna are looking for SME contractors based in Wiltshire, Dorset and Somerset to support the delivery of the next generation of affordable homes and are looking for likeminded contractors who are keen to be part of this innovative partnership.</p>
