With increased pressure on public sector organisations to deliver on ambitious targets for the development of new-build social housing, WPA have re-established a new framework for social landlords across Wales.
The New Homes for Wales framework provides public sector organisations with an efficient and compliant procurement route for the construction of all types of new housing.
The framework includes the option for a client to directly award a construction project associated with a land purchase element, where the company has a direct interest in the land.
To ensure a mix of local SMEs and larger contractors, the framework has been broken down geographically into 5 regions of Wales (North-East, North-West, Mid, South-East, South-west) and by project size as follows:
This framework is split into two workstreams with options to provide services under each workstream: Construction and Demolition.
New build housing projects
Accommodation
Conversions to form new dwellings, flats, bedsits
Any joint ventures, partnerships and such like between contracting authorities and principal contractors
Package deals between contracting authorities and contractors

The provision of commercial units as part of a construction project
Private housing, including shared ownership, homes for sale etc.

Diversion and/or disconnection of existing site services
Geotechnical and exploratory ground investigation and surveys
Separation from existing buildings
