The four-year deal covers jobs worth 拢250,000 to 拢100m
A group of Welsh local authorities led by Cardiff council has begun the search for contractors for a 拢1bn framework.
The four-year South East and Mid Wales Collaborative Construction Framework will cover construction activities in relation to schools and public buildings.
It is the third iteration of the framework, with the previous version led by Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council.
Up to 10 firms are expected to be invited to bid for each of the 11 lots, with contractors having until 1 October to register their interest in the deal.
Lots one to four are geographic lots covering jobs worth between 拢250,000 and 拢1.5m, while lot five covers jobs worth 拢1.5m to 拢5m in mid Wales.
Lot six covers the entire region and caters for jobs worth between 拢1.5m and 拢3m, lot seven is for 拢3m to 拢5m jobs and lot eight is for jobs with a value between 拢5m and 拢10m.
The ninth lot covers jobs worth 拢10m to 拢25m and lot 10 is for jobs valued between 拢25m and 拢100m, while lot 11 is for demountable or temporary buildings worth up to 拢10m.
The shortlisted candidates are expected to be invited to tender by 5 November.
According to the contract notice, which was published to the Official Journal of the European Union today, modular solutions could potentially be used across all 11 lots.
The framework will be able to be used by 13 local authorities, both the Welsh and central government, schools, various religious groups and other public sector bodies.
