Market Consultation North and Mid-Wales Residential Construction Framework
Main contract details
In publishing the market consultation WPA is seeking views on the most appropriate scope and structure of the framework to ensure sufficient market interest and that clients' needs are met. Currently 9 contracting authorities have expressed an interest in commissioning 2,420 homes through the framework.
Views can be expressed via an-online survey, telephone and video conferencing and face to face meetings (as far as is feasible).
The Works (including associated Services and / or Supplies) to be delivered include the development of new build residential projects, including ‘Housing’ (housing, bungalows, flats, apartments etc.) and ‘Accommodation’ (sheltered accommodation, care homes, extra care (e.g. dementia) student accommodation etc.)
The proposed lot structure consists of 9 lots across 8 North and Mid-Wales counties: Ynys Mo^n (Anglesey); Gwynedd; Conwy; Sir Ddinbych (Denbighshire); Sir y Fflint (Flintshire); Wrecsam (Wrexham); Ceredigion; North and South Powys. Plus an additional 'All counties lot - covering lots 1 - 9 (the Super-lot)' is being proposed plus additional specialist lots (see below).
WPA anticipates a wide range of projects being delivered under the framework, from single smaller sites to complex multi-site projects.
This is reflected in a value banded sub-lots structure within each county (and the 'all counties 1-9' (Super-lot)), for delivery of housing developments of varying sizes: up to 5 units; 5 – 15 units; 16 – 49 units; 50 units and above.
It may be that a specialist lot within each county will be included to provide for the construction of Accommodation, in addition to the 4 value-banded lots which would then be specifically for the construction of Housing. A separate ‘Super-lot’ for Accommodation may also be appropriate on this basis.
Please note that this is a market consultation and the profile of services that will be procured by WPA is not fixed; the Works listed within the PIN are not exhaustive and WPA may add or withdraw Works from the profile described. Indeed, it is this tailoring of the procurement scope that is a primary objective of the Consultation. Market consultation comments are requested prior to the closing date for responses of 16:00 on the 18th October 2019. However the Market Consultation documents will remain available to view, ultimately being incorporated in the procurement documents which are published to support the Contract Notice.
