Valleys to Coast Contractors Framework

Valleys to Coast Housing Limited is establishing a multi-supplier Contractors Framework for construction services in Wales, managed through a multi-stage Competitive Flexible Procedure. The scope of work encompasses new builds, regeneration, refurbishment, alterations, and extensions, utilizing both traditional and Design and Build methods. The framework is divided into four unit-scaled lots: Lot 1 (1-5 units), Lot 2 (6-15 units), Lot 3 (16-49 units), and Lot 4 (50+ units), with each lot having an estimated value of 62,500,000 GBP excluding VAT. The framework is scheduled to run from March 30, 2027, to March 30, 2030, with a possible one-year extension to March 30, 2031. The procurement process begins with a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) phase, with shortlisted contractors later invited to submit full technical and commercial proposals. Awards are based on a combination of price and quality, with a specific focus on qualitative, technical, and social value responses. Once the framework is established, call-off contracts will be awarded via direct award or mini-competition. All submissions must be handled electronically via the eTenderWales portal, with a final response deadline of 12:00pm on December 2, 2026. Valid and undisputed invoices will be paid within 30 days.
