projects valued below this threshold across the region, to ensure consistency, driving the delivery of community benefits, develop
continuous improvement and set new benchmarks for best practice.

Harvesting benefits and savings from use of technology, improved processes, Collaborative working, supply savings and efficiencies
through fairness, transparency and competitive collaboration on projects.
Maximising local, community and impacts through SME engagement and intelligent quality based selection and clearly defined targets and
benchmarked performance.
Exceeding the performance and outputs from NWCF2, with enhanced value for the Customers, Stakeholders and communities.
Being the “go to” procurement solution for public bodies in north Wales.
_________________________________________________________
It is proposed that the framework will be set up by the six NW authorities by June 2024 and be in place for four years (with a break clause to review after the first two years).
The Framework to also be available to be used by organisations to include, but are not
