Published description of the framework
The Framework Agreement will be operated in accordance with the Framework Alliance Contract (FAC-1), including LHCPG-specific amendments.
Call-off contracts may be awarded by LHC Clients using one of the following procedures:
- Competitive Selection (Mini-Competition)
A further competition conducted among all capable Appointed Companies within the relevant Lot and geographic area. Award will be based on project-specific criteria determined by the LHC Client, which may refine (but not fundamentally alter) the award criteria set at Framework stage.
- Direct Award
A call-off contract may be awarded without further competition where the Appointed Company is selected in accordance with a pre-defined and objective mechanism set out in the Framework Agreement. These mechanisms include (but are not limited to):
Ranked Framework Score Method
Pre-Priced Schedule / Standard Configuration Method
Objective Technical Compatibility Method
In all cases, the LHC Client must document and evidence the application of the relevant objective mechanism in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023.
Pricing
Prices submitted at Framework award stage represent Agreed Maximum Prices and include schedules of rates, standard pricing scenarios and overhead and profit percentages. These prices may be subject to periodic adjustment in line with published inflation indices as set out in the Framework Agreement.
At call-off stage, pricing may be determined by:
application of pre-priced framework rates;
further competition; or
direct award in accordance with the applicable objective mechanism.

- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Housing, Regeneration and Demolition (H3) Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

LHC Procurement Group is undertaking early market engagement to inform the development of the upcoming H3 – Housing Construction, Demolition and Remediation 3 Framework. This engagement aims to gather insight from contractors, modular manufacturers, demolition and remediation specialists, and wider supply chain partners to help refine the Framework structure, lot strategy, technical specification and commercial approach prior to procurement.
The engagement will cover the full anticipated scope of the Framework, including new build traditional and MMC housing (low-rise and high-rise), conversions and adaptations, demolition and site clearance, ground investigation and remediation, and associated enabling works. Participants will have the opportunity to provide feedback on proposed workstreams, lotting, pricing approaches, KPIs, social value requirements, and any barriers to participation—particularly for SMEs and specialist providers.
LHC will host a series of market engagement activities, including an online supplier webinar and optional one-to-one sessions.
Suppliers interested in participating should register their interest through the portal to receive updates, event invitations and engagement materials.
