Description

The Framework is intended to provide Public Sector Contracting Authorities with access to suitably qualified Development Partners capable of supporting projects across the full development lifecycle.

The Framework is expected to support: early-stage feasibility and pre-development activities, developer-led delivery of public sector assets, and long-term regeneration and investment partnerships.

The Framework is expected to include a range of delivery models, including: Development Agreements (DA), Joint Ventures (JV) and Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV), and pre-development and feasibility support services.

The Framework will be structured on a regional basis across England, aligned with established English regions (based on NUTS codes), enabling delivery through locally experienced partners with knowledge of regional markets and supply chains.

Potential Framework users may therefore include but are not limited to: Local authorities and Combined Authorities, NHS Trusts and NHS Organisations, Universities and Further Education Institutions, Housing Associations, as well as other Public Bodies with land or regeneration objectives.
