Firms appointed to £475m JV North framework

A total of 17 contractors have been appointed to a £475m housing framework in north-west England.

The framework from JV North Limited, a consortium of social housing providers, will be used to deliver affordable housing including houses, flats and bungalows, as well as conversions and small-scale remodelling.

The client may also call on contractors to deliver public realm or commercial elements as part of wider neighbourhood schemes, according to a 21 August contract notice.

The first lot, worth £75m, covers projects up to £4m. Lot two covers projects valued at £4m–£12m and is worth £250m while the final lot, valued at £150m, covers schemes above £12m (see boxout for full list of contractors).

All contract values exclude VAT.

Seddon was appointed to lots two and three, while Eric Wright won a place on lot three.

The framework will be used by JV North’s current and future members. It runs across the North West and is focused primarily on affordable new-build housing, though it can be used for regeneration and infrastructure elements tied to residential projects.
