National Developer Framework

Wirral Council (the “Council”), as the Contracting Authority, in partnership with Procure Partnerships Framework intends to let a National Developer Framework (the “Framework”). The Framework will have a maximum duration of four years and may be used to award contracts for public sector development requirements across all English Regions. The Framework is designed to provide Public Sector Contracting Authorities with access to suitably qualified Development Partners capable of supporting projects across the full development lifecycle, from master planning and securing planning permission through to design, construction, delivery and, where applicable, aftercare of completed assets.

The Framework will include a range of delivery models, including Development Agreements (DA), Joint Ventures (JV), Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV), Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP) and pre-development and feasibility support services. The Framework will be structured on a regional basis across England, aligned with established English regions (based on NUTS codes), enabling delivery through locally experienced partners with knowledge of regional markets and supply chains. The Framework consists of 63 Lots, comprising 36 Development Agreement Lots (Lots 1–36) and 27 Joint Venture / SPV Lots (Lots 37–63), split across nine English regions and a series of value bands.
