MPSL successfully appointed to £1.5 billion Innovation Chain North Framework

MPSL Planning & Design has been appointed by Great Places Housing Group to its Innovation Chain North (ICN) framework of contractors and consultants for the next 4 years.

The £1.5 billion framework has been designed to support delivery of new homes across the north of England, not only to support Great Places’ affordable development programme but also other Housing Associations operating across the north of England.

One of the 103 contractors and consultants from the 206 that applied to be successful, MPSL were selected based on technical competence, price and commitment to social value.

Commenting on their appointment David Golden, Managing Director from MPSL, said: “MPSL are delighted to be part of the ICN Framework once again. We are looking forward to continuing to work in partnership with Great Places and the ICN members to deliver high-quality homes for their residents.”

Joanne Whitehead, Great Places’ Development Performance Manager, responsible for managing the framework, added: “We are delighted to be working with MPSL on our new ICN framework. We are confident they will be able to work with us and the clients of ICN in delivering the sector’s extensive development ambitions in the North.”

The new £1.5 billion framework will run until June 2028.
