## Summary

The LHC for the Scottish Procurement Alliance (SPA) is preparing to establish a framework agreement titled "Modern Methods of Construction New Homes Framework NH3" within the construction industry, primarily focusing on modern construction methods for residential buildings. This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with market engagement activities anticipated in spring 2022. The framework will cover regions across North and Central England, London, the South East, the South West, Scotland, and Wales. Interested businesses are encouraged to register their interest as of now, with the tender expected to be issued in July 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction, especially those specialising in modern methods and offsite construction systems. Companies offering modular and portable buildings, groundworks, and turnkey housing solutions, including those focused on enhanced energy performance and net-zero carbon projects, would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging in market consultation webinars will provide valuable insights and facilitate networking with key stakeholders from the LHC and other associated procurement bodies, thus positioning capable organisations for potential collaboration and contract awards.
