CHIC’s Newbuild Framework

This framework provides a comprehensive solution to deliver all types of development related works and services to help tackle the housing shortage. It caters for a wide range of project types, from small infill and garage sites to large estate regeneration projects including newbuild, refurbishment/retrofit and cross subsidy housing for sale. It also provides MMC solutions including fully modular, frame & panel and turnkey options.

The framework addresses the specific needs identified through member consultation, including a longer term duration, MMC options and support, consultancy services, a solution for larger regeneration projects, the use of standard contracts, BIM integration and a focus on collaborative and social value outcomes.

It offers our members an inclusive approach, encouraging innovation, collaboration and added social value. We believe it will help our members to deliver their newbuild developments efficiently, setting a gold standard for the sector.
