## Summary

The procurement process is being conducted by the LHC for the South West Procurement Alliance (SWPA) for the project titled "Low Carbon Offsite MMC Construction - South West DPS". This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) focuses on the construction of low-energy residential units and community facilities within the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised under construction work and follows a selective method with a restricted procedure. Key dates include a tender period that ends on 26 September 2021, with the contract period running from 27 September 2021 to 26 September 2031. The overall value of the procurement is approximately £1.125 billion.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in construction, modern methods of construction, and sustainable building practices. Companies capable of delivering low carbon construction solutions or involved in offsite construction methods will be well-positioned to compete for contracts. The diversity of potential projects, ranging from single-site developments to larger multi-site initiatives, creates a broad scope for participation, catering to both small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Interested suppliers must register on SWPA's eTendering portal to access bids and notifications.

## Notice

This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is in relation to the construction of residential dwellings (and any associated community buildings and facilities) incorporating low energy offsite systems across the South West for the public sector. The DPS is aimed at delivering offsite housing, apartments, care homes and multi-occupancy dwellings including zero carbon solutions. SWPA anticipates a wide range of projects being delivered under the DPS, from single smaller sites to complex multi-site projects. This is reflected in the turnover & lot structure for delivery of developments of varying sizes. The DPS also provides for the delivery of community buildings to residential developments (such as hubs and sporting facilities e.g. meeting places; health and care centres; recreational facilities and libraries). Plus, any associated commercial facilities such as car parks and retail units. This DPS application process will run in conjunction with a new digital toolkit from Constructing Modern Methods (CMM). CMM was developed as a concept in a previous piece of research funded by the Local Government Association and conducted with Bristol City Council (BCC) and Bristol Housing Festival (BHF) to understand what resources might make the widescale adoption of modern methods of construction and offsite housing solutions more feasible. Candidates will need to register as a supplier on SWPA's eTendering portal, ProContract before being able to apply to the DPS. Once registered candidates will need to ensure they are logged in and click the appropriate DPS link from the opportunity list. Once they have entered the Low Carbon Offsite Construction DPS the candidate should click on 'register interest in this opportunity' Please note that this opportunity is linked to a previous Prior Information Notice 2021/S 000-005316
