## About this tender

Procurement Hub is tendering for the appointment of the Regional Construction Framework (RCF), a pioneering procurement vehicle designed to meet the evolving needs of the United Kingdom's public sector. As the procurement landscape undergoes its most significant transformation in a generation with the implementation of the Procurement Act 2023, the RCF represents a proactive and sophisticated response to these changes. This framework is not merely a list of suppliers; it is a dedicated solution specifically engineered for construction projects with a value of up to £10 million, strategically targeting contractors who are the lifeblood of regional infrastructure.

Our vision for the RCF is to move decisively beyond the traditional "race to the bottom" that has historically characterised public sector procurement. By adhering to the rigorous recommendations set out in Professor David Mosey's "Constructing the Gold Standard" review, we aim to foster a sustainable, high-performing construction ecosystem built on transparency, fair returns, and long-term collaboration. In an industry where profit margins averaged just 1.7% in 2024, the RCF prioritises cost certainty and regional market resilience over unsustainable price-cutting.

For potential bidders, the RCF offers a unique opportunity to engage with a framework that values technical expertise and regional presence as much as commercial competitiveness. We are seeking firms who possess deep roots in local labour markets and specialised regional supply chains. Through a limited supplier panel of only three contractors per lot, we ensure a high win probability for our partners, reducing the "wasted" bid costs and "bid fatigue" often associated with larger, unmanaged frameworks.
