Link Group intends to enter into a Framework Agreement with a limited number of Building Contractors to provide construction services for a four year period with a possible one year extension. This may also include the provision of design and construction services. Link works in partnership with a number of subsidiary companies who will also be entitled to purchase works & services from the Framework Agreement. The subsidiaries of Link Group Ltd currently include, Link Living, C~urb 6 Ltd (C~urb), Horizon Housing Association Ltd, Larkfield Housing Association and West Highland Housing Association. Although it is possible that other organisations may join the Group, becoming subsidiary companies, during the term of the Framework Agreement, and may also wish to "call off" from the Framework. Link also works in partnership with several external organisations, refer to Section 1.1 of the Contract Notice for further detail, who will also be entitled to purchase services from the Framework Agreement. In addition, it is also intended that any Registered Social Landlord registered and operating in Scotland will be entitled to purchase works & services from the framework, subject to Link's prior agreement. There is no guarantee of any work. It is however, more than likely that individual commissions will be "called off" either by direct selection or by mini tendering, within the terms of the Framework Agreement, to identify the most economically advantageous tender. The Framework Agreement will mainly cover the provision of construction works & services for new build housing, however individual projects may also include rehabilitation of existing properties, office and commercial properties, extensions, community facilities and adaptations, and planned maintenance projects. The projects will range in size, tenure and type from mainstream housing to a variety of special needs projects. The tenure type will cover all affordable tenures, private rented and market sale. Applicants should have experience of projects within the social housing sector for projects between 5 and 500 units including flats, houses and retirement living projects with a mix of tenures. The location of projects will vary but in the main will be located in the Central Belt of Scotland, Argyll & Bute and Highland, however individual projects may be located in any part of Scotland. The total number of units in each of the geographical areas may vary and specific numbers cannot be guaranteed in any area or in total. Although individual projects cannot be guaranteed, Link will expect the successful contractors to deliver a high quality and value for money service.

Lift Maintenance for Wandsworth Council Housing and Richmond and Wandsworth Operational Buildings (3 lots)

Hertfordshire County Council is procuring a delivery partner for a new Supported Housing scheme at Westbury, Letchworth. The project forms part of the Council's wider five-year programme to increase the supply and quality of supported living accommodation for disabled adults and its Extra Care Housing Programme, which aims to provide modern, accessible homes that promote independence and wellbeing for older people who require care and support. The Council's preferred approach is to work with a Registered Provider that can bring development expertise, long-term ownership and housing management experience, supported by Homes England funding and Registered Provider investment alongside Council resources. The successful partner would develop, own and manage the accommodation on Council-owned land under a long lease arrangement. The Council is currently undertaking preparatory work on the site and expects to progress design and enabling works during 2025/26, with construction planned from 2026 onwards and completion between 2027 and 2030. Outline planning permission is expected to be secured through North Hertfordshire District Council, with any necessary enabling works undertaken to facilitate delivery of the scheme. Hertfordshire County Council (the “Council”) is a large shire county in the south-east of England with a population of 1.2 million. Hertfordshire is a two-tier authority with 10 district and borough councils providing complementary local services to residents. In February 2025, the Council launched a five-year delivery plan to increase the supply and quality of supported living accommodation in Hertfordshire and, in doing so, deliver wider health and wellbeing outcomes to meet the existing and future demand for disabled adults in Hertfordshire by 2030.  The programme responds to current and future demand, including people who currently live in unsuitable existing HCC accommodation, people living with their family who now need a home of their own, people in residential care whose needs could be met in supported living, and people living outside Hertfordshire who wish to return. The Supported Living Delivery Programme is intended to replace outdated accommodation, improve quality and accessibility, support independence, and provide modern homes.   The Council’s Extra Care delivery programme focusses on the provision of modern, accessible homes across the county that support independent living for older people and adults with care needs. By increasing the supply of Extra Care housing, the council aims to meet growing demand, promote well-being and independence, reduce reliance on residential care and ensure residents can remain in their communities while receiving flexible support tailored to their changing needs. The programme is responding to significant demographic growth, with evidence indicating a need for around 8,000 additional Extra care units by 2042, including approximately 1,800 affordable homes.   The Council’s preferred delivery approach is to work with Registered Providers who can bring housing development expertise, long-term ownership and housing management experience. This approach is intended to support delivery at pace while also making use of Homes England funding and Registered Provider investment alongside Council resources. The Council is exploring the best approach to work with developing Registered Providers (both Housing Associations and Local Authorities) (‘RPs’) to deliver, own and manage accommodation on Council owned land via a long lease (virtual freehold).    The Council is currently undertaking preparatory work on the Westbury site which is Council owned with a view to progressing design and enabling works during 2026-27, construction in 2027/28 – 2028/29 and phased completion and handover in 2028–30.   The Council anticipates obtaining outline planning approval for the site via the Local Planning Authority at North Herts District Council and undertaking enabling works where required to bring the site forward.  The Council seeks submissions from a Registered Provider partner to deliver, own and manage supported living accommodation at the Westbury Site. The successful Tenderer will enter into the following agreements with the Council, together “the Contract”: Grant Agreement – (note different terms subject to RP Not for Profit or For Profit) Nominations Agreement Development Agreement Lease Agreement Service Level Agreement Heads of Terms Any security documentation as required In order to receive site- specific documents, Tenderers will be required to sign and return a Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”).

Eastleigh Borough Council (the Authority) is seeking to appoint an expert Main Contractor to undertake the design & build of 192 new mixed tenure homes in Botley, Eastleigh, Hampshire. Full development consent has been secured in 2026. The Authority committed itself to provide new homes, services and infrastructure, at this development, known as Kings Copse Avenue (KCA). KCA is a key part of the Authority's self-delivery of housing pipeline. A dedicated project delivery team has been established that has overseen the planning stages and will support delivery of the development. Planning Application (F/25/100141) lists the permission secured for the 192 new homes, the Authority has an adopted policy of 'infrastructure first' and commits to progress our own developments at pace, taking all reasonable steps ahead of a main contractor award, to de-risk the development, to aid a swift start, leading to occupations. The programme anticipates a start on site in Q3 2027, first plot completions in early 2028 and final completion in late 2030, delivering all 192 plots together as a single phase with the associated infrastructure, soft and hard landscaping and open spaces. The Authority seeks to appoint the works required at KCA, pursuant to a JCT Design and Build Contract 2024. Further details in relation to KCA and the works required are provided in the Project Brief, which is provided as part of the associated tender documents for this procurement. The contract will be awarded as one Lot. This procurement process is following a competitive flexible procedure under the Procurement Act 2023 and is split into the following phases. Phase 1 - Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) Potential suppliers will be required to complete a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) compromising: • Pass/fail questions setting out Conditions of Participation • Questions on technical capabilities which will be evaluated and scored. The PSQ is to be returned by 11/11/2026, with clarifications closing on 06/11/2026. The Authority intends that it will invite the four highest scoring potential suppliers - based on the scored technical capability responses - that satisfy Conditions of Participation to participate in an invitation to tender (ITT) stage. Phase 2 - Invitation to Tender (ITT) The ITT phase is intended to comprise of: • A pricing submission; • A development specific technical submission; and • Interviews with potential suppliers. Each submission and the interviews will be evaluated and scored. If the Authority does not conduct a BAFO stage, the contract will be awarded to the supplier whose tender is determined to be the most advantageous tender following evaluation of the ITT submission and interview in accordance with the award criteria and assessment methodology set out in the associated tender documents provided to suppliers invited to the ITT stage. Phase 3 - Optional BAFO Stage Following evaluation of the initial tenders and interviews, the Authority reserves the right, but is not obliged, to invite all potential suppliers remaining in the procedure to submit a Best and Final Offer ("BAFO"). The Authority may invoke the BAFO stage where it considers that suppliers should be given an opportunity to improve their tenders in relation to price, quality and/or contractual matters before the final award decision. If the BAFO stage is used, the Authority will notify participating suppliers of the timetable, permitted scope of revisions and applicable submission requirements.

NB: The Councils' high level requirements are summarised below with further important details included within the Procurement Documents accessible via https://supplier.in-tend.co.uk/portsmouthcc/home. INTRODUCTION Portsmouth City Council - the 'Council' - will require the appointed provider to develop approx. 60 new extra care housing units on a design, build, finance and operate (DBFO) basis at the site of the now demolished Edinburgh House Care Home. The site is located in located within Sundridge Close, Cosham, Portsmouth, Hampshire, PO6 3JL and is wholly owned by the Council. The intention is for the Council to retain the freehold (disposal not precluded at this point) and offer a long lease arrangement, which will include 100% nomination rights to the Council on a 100% affordable rent basis. Rent and service charge will be eligible for housing benefit should residents be eligible. Residents will only be eligible if they are being supported by the Council. KEY OBJECTIVES The aim of the project is to deliver affordable high-quality, sustainable accommodation that meets the needs of older people and vulnerable adults, promoting independence while ensuring access to care and support services as required. In undertaking this project, the Council is targeting achievement of the following key objectives: • To provide affordable, purpose-built extra care housing units that enable residents to live independently for as long as possible. • To ensure the design and operation of the scheme adhere to best practice, regulatory standards, and local planning requirements. • To deliver a financially sustainable model for both the provider and the local authority. • To offer a supportive environment with access to care services, communal spaces, and facilities that enhance quality of life. • To deliver a development that is as sustainable and efficient for both residents and the environment as possible. CONTRACT TERM, KEY DATES & MILESTONES The Council is targeting to have completed the procurement process and secured a preferred provider by the end of May 2027. The Council will enter into a agreement for lease with the secured provider on an initial 12-month term and subject to a 30 month long stop timescale. The provider must have submitted a planning application within 6 months of commencement of the agreement for lease. Development must formally commence within 4 months of planning permission being clear of judicial review proceedings and must be completed within 24 months. The Council will enter into a long lease arrangement with the Provider based upon the Heads of Terms set out within the following section. The length of the lease and extension options will be determined through the procurement process but will be no less than 40 years in minimum duration and no more than 250 years in respect of maximum duration including for any extension options. The associated Nominations agreement will run co-terminus with the length of the lease or, if less than the duration of the lease, the operational life span of the developed affordable Extra Care properties including for major refurbishment / modernisation to extend lifespan. COMMERCIAL ARRANGEMENTS & ESTIMATES The Council is not seeking to make significant rental income from the long lease arrangement which will be offered on a peppercorn basis. The Council will also consider proposals which require a level of underwriting for void properties. The Provider will be responsible for securing all, or at the least, the vast majority of development funding. The Council will consider bids which require a level of capital contribution from the Council if viability is dependent upon this. Based upon benchmarked average regional rent & service charge levels (1 bed £226 per week, 2 bed £255 per week), applying an average occupancy level of 90%, multiplying by the 60 no. properties development target and multiplying by 52 weeks the Council estimates that revenue generated through could be approximately £640,000 per year. With inflation applied at 2.5% estimate year on year compound basis, and also accounting for land value plus cost of enabling works already undertaken by the Council (total approx. £1.65M), the Council's business opportunity value estimate for a 40-year minimum lease term arrangement is approx. £45M. Over a max lease term of 250 years the business opportunity grows exponentially to £12.2B when compound inflation is applied. Noting that the nominations agreement term will be linked to the operational lifespan of the developed properties, which even with significant modernisation is unlikely to exceed 80 - 100 years, the upper end value of the business opportunity is more likely to fall between £160M - £280M. PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT STATUS In 2023, the Edinburgh House site secured detailed planning approval for 50 extra care housing units and was designated with a C3 planning classification. Although planning approval is in place for 50 units, a high-level massing study has been undertaken inhouse and it is believed that the site has capacity for at least 60 affordable units. The Council will be looking to maximise the efficiency of the site, but at the same time, retain the benefits of a compliant extra care housing setting, which will achieve standards as set out within HAPPI and Housing LIN. In addition, the Council will be looking for adherence to TAPPI standards to enhance the use of technology where possible. The appointed partner will be expected to undertake a design review of the existing planning approval and amend accordingly to meet the Council's aspirations of securing at least 60 units. This will require a new Planning application. The Council has cleared the Edinburgh House site and constructed a new access road with all the appropriate rights required to ensure legal passage. However, it should be noted that the appointed DBFO partner will be required to meet certain obligations in relation to the access road. SUMMARY SCOPE The appointed provider will be appointed on a DBFO basis and therefore will be required to design a building to accommodate at least 60 units, secure a new Planning approval consent with the required legal agreements, complete the detailed design, secure all or at least the very significant majority of necessary funding, construct the new setting and then operate landlord & housing management services for a period as set out in the future lease. The DBFO provider will be required to design, construct and provide property management of the extra care housing in accordance with the Council's summary requirements defined within the Specification and associated documentation which will be issued at the next stage of the procurement process to the shortlisted providers. A summary of the providers specific Design, Build, Finance and Operate responsibilities are set out below: DESIGN • Develop architectural plans for the site, ensuring accessibility, safety, and comfort for residents. • Include a mix of unit sizes to accommodate diverse needs and preferences. Expected split of units 95% 1 bed & 5% 2 bed. • Incorporate communal areas, gardens, and activity spaces. • Secure detailed Planning permission for the development. • Ensure compliance with relevant building regulations, including fire safety and accessibility standards. • Ensure compliance with HAPPI and TAPPI Standards. • Consideration should be allowed for intergenerational living where possible. • Ensure that the design complies with a reasonable level of sustainability (BREEAM Excellent/Good) and considers the wider resident efficiencies. BUILD • Construct the extra care housing scheme to the agreed design, using sustainable materials and building practices. • Deliver all site infrastructure, landscaping, and ancillary works. • Complete construction within agreed timescales and budget. • Please note the obligations for appointed partner in relation to the highway access to the site, which has been constructed, but has some liabilities for the DBFO partner. • The DBFO provider should look to generate local labour policies during construction and consider linking to the social value element of the tender. FINANCE • Provide a robust financial model, including capital investment, operational costs, and rental income projections. • Demonstrate capacity to secure and manage funding for both construction and ongoing operations. • Ensure affordability for residents in line with local authority guidelines. • Ensure sustainable and viable long-term delivery of the development and service. OPERATE • Manage the day-to-day running of the scheme, including maintenance, resident services, resident tenancies, and staffing. • Ensure that residents costs are kept to a minimum and are deemed as affordable, including service charges. • Monitor and report on service quality, resident wellbeing, and scheme performance. • Self report against a set of high level KPI's as set by the Council which reflect those that Registered Providers are required to report to the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) CARE PROVISION The provider will NOT be responsible for the provision of care and support to residents which will be procured separately. The Council's commissioning strategy is for the care & support to be delivered by a different provider to help preserve residents' independence and flexibility. This approach will also enable the Council to make efficient use of existing commissioning models in respect of the provision of care services to vulnerable older persons and to align the care provided to the occupants of the extra care housing with that provided more widely. As such, the successful provider for the development and property management of the extra care housing secured via this procurement process will be barred from bidding for the future associated care and support contract.
