CWM3 will deliver individual construction related projects or programmes including new build work, extensions, improvements, renovations, reinstatements, repairs, electrical services, mechanical services, infrastructure works and may also include design and other services to develop and construct the works.

Principal Works Contractors are invited to participate in a market engagement process with CWM by completing an early market engagement questionnaire. The information provided by suppliers will be used to help inform the framework design and procurement strategy.
