Summary of the contracting process

The North Wales Construction Framework (NWCF3) is a planned procurement initiative led by Denbighshire County Council in collaboration with five other North Wales authorities. The framework aims to procure regional construction projects over the threshold of 250,000 GBP. It will be available for use by various public sector agencies by June 2024 for a duration of four years. The initiative focuses on improving regional construction procurement practices, driving community benefits, and enhancing collaboration and transparency through technology, process improvements, and SME engagement.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for firms in the construction sector, particularly those based in North Wales and neighbouring regions. Companies with expertise in construction projects falling within value bands ranging from 250,000 GBP to over 15 million GBP are well-suited to compete. The framework's emphasis on engagement, upskilling of the supply chain, and driving efficiencies through fairness and transparency makes it an attractive prospect for firms looking to expand their presence in the public construction sector.

    "description": "It is proposed to renew the current Framework and extend its scope to cater for every construction project over 250K GBP threshold and to incorporate the lessons learned from the current iteration. The Framework has been a catalyst for engagement and upskilling of the regional supply chain. Alongside the regional framework, the project's scope is to also continue improving the current construction procurement practices for 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. It is proposed that the framework will be set up by the six NW authorities and available to be used by other public sector agencies (Higher Education, Police Authority and Fire and Rescue Services) by June 2024 and be in place for four years (with a break clause to review after the first 2 years). A Collaborative and integrated framework, building on the foundations of NWCF 1 & 2 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. Whilst the exact detail of the anticipated spend is unconfirmed, Government spend projections and extrapolation of the performance of the NWCF3 indicate that a likely spend of some 600m GBP is anticipated.
