Re:allies has procured and will enter into a framework agreement with multiple contractors for the new build construction of residential and commercial buildings. The scope of works undertaken via the framework agreement will include site preparation, site remediation, associated civil engineering and infrastructure works, design, new build construction, refurbishment and the development of various property types. Contractors who have been appointed to the framework agreement will be required to meet minimum training and employment targets that are linked to the works awarded via the framework agreement. Contractors will, where requested, be required to source goods, materials and services required for the works from framework agreements already established by Re:allies.

The framework agreement will allow contracting authorities named and referred to within the contract notice to enter into underlying contracts for the completion of the works covered by the framework agreement. The framework agreement is divided into 4 Lots and the details are as follows; 1. Schemes up to a value of £2,000,000 - Predominantly the North West. This may extend to other areas of the UK. 2. Schemes up to a value of £2,000,000 - Predominantly Yorkshire and Humberside. This may extend to other areas of the UK. 3. Schemes with a value in excess of £2,000,000 - North West and Yorkshire and Humberside. This may extend to other areas of the UK. 4. Offsite manufacture and construction - North West and Yorkshire and Humberside. This may extend to other areas of the UK.

The framework agreement will be in place for a period of 48 months and will not be extended beyond this term. Contracts that are called off under the framework agreement may (where required) continue beyond the 48 month term of the framework agreement. Individual contracting authorities entitled to access the framework agreement will have the option to agree and award underlying contracts to the appointed contractors at any stage during the term of the framework agreement. A list of the contracting authorities entitled to call off the framework agreement can be found in section VI.3 of the contract Notice.

The contracting authorities referred to in the contract notice have requirements predominantly in the North of England. Contracting authorities in other areas of the UK may also use this framework agreement. The contracting authorities referred to in the contract notice are under no obligation to use the framework agreement.
