Firms on the existing framework include Vinci, Engie, Mace, Kier, Galliford Try, McLaren, Morgan Sindall, Willmott Dixon and Rydon.

The new framework will have nine lots, including three for newbuild projects of 拢5m to 拢15m, 拢10m to 拢25m and 拢20m and above.

There will also be an MMC lot for projects worth 拢5m and above and passivhaus projects worth 拢5m and above.

Other lots include single stage tendering, planned maintenance and fire safety works, retrofit and refurbishment.

LCP said the framework comes with four main objectives, helping clients achieve their net zero goals, providing an efficient route to market for housing schemes, driving positive change in mental health, diversity, inclusion, and driving supply chain collaboration.
