## Summary

The LHC, acting on behalf of the Scottish Procurement Alliance, is conducting a procurement process for a New Build Housing Construction Framework, aimed at delivering various forms of housing across Scotland. The framework encompasses multiple workstreams, including traditional housing, care homes, and medium to high-rise developments. The procurement method is selective, operating through a restricted procedure, and the application process is currently planned, with a focus on enhancing community benefits through the selection of contractors. Key dates for submissions are yet to be finalised, with the intention to issue the tender by May/June 2021.

This framework presents significant growth opportunities for construction firms, particularly those specialising in low and high-rise housing, as well as civil engineering and associated services. Businesses that can demonstrate strong technical capability, regional experience, and the ability to engage in community benefit initiatives will be well-positioned to compete. With a variety of lots available, ranging from projects under £2 million to those exceeding £2 million, both small and large-scale companies can participate, fostering a diverse and competitive bidding environment.
