WPA / LHC is a joint committee of local authorities acting as a central purchasing body on behalf of contracting authorities throughout England, Wales and Scotland (including members of the Welsh Procurement Alliance).

Thanks to the ongoing and collective feedback and input into the development of this framework, it is both designed and anticipated to support the vast majority of our clients’ and partners’ requirements.

Consequently, other contracting authorities that were not specifically consulted in the development of this framework may nevertheless also deem the framework to offer a value for money procurement solution for their own requirements and may also use the framework.

As of the date of publication of this notice our frameworks may be used by all contracting authorities in Wales as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and as listed on https://www.welshprocurement.cymru/who-we-work-with/, including, but not limited to Registered social landlords (RSL's), tenant management organisations (TMOs) and arm’s length management organisations (ALMOs), local authorities and any subsidiaries and joint-venture vehicles of those local authorities, health authorities, councils, boards and trusts, publicly funded schools, universities and further education establishments, colleges, police forces, fire and rescue services or registered charities.

- Generating education, employment and vocational training opportunities for priority groups and for up-skilling the existing workforce;

- Supporting environmental concerns such as net carbon zero

- Delivering equality and diversity initiatives;

- Making sub-contracting opportunities available to SMEs, local organisations, the third sector and supported businesses;
