## Summary

Community Housing has initiated a comprehensive procurement process for the Worcestershire and West Midlands Development Framework, spanning various construction and consultancy services. This framework includes 11 specific lots, catering to a wide range of projects from small development works to large-scale construction over £25m. The framework, which runs for five years with a potential one-year extension, will serve multiple public sector bodies across the UK, including NHS groups and local authorities. Each lot has clear criteria aimed at ensuring the participation of suitably skilled and experienced suppliers, with a focus on promoting best practices and collaborative working. The procurement process follows an open procedure, with submissions due by 6th June 2024 and awards set to begin thereafter.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for various types of businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs), to engage in public sector development projects. The diverse nature of the lots, ranging from architectural and engineering services to site demolition and development management, allows businesses of different specialities to find suitable opportunities. By participating in this framework, businesses can expand their portfolio, gain a reliable customer in the public sector, and potentially grow through long-term contracts that provide stable work and revenue. The involvement of key public sector bodies and the robust framework agreement further underscore the potential for business growth and development.
