SCF Residential has been designed to be flexible and responsive to industry pressures to help meet the ongoing challenges of the housing crisis with high quality, sustainable developments that utilise modern methods of construction (MMC).
Pat Boyle, managing director of Morgan Sindall Construction, said: "We are very pleased to have this opportunity to continue our relationship with SCF. We welcome the SCF’s focus on making a real difference in terms of delivering better social, environmental and sustainability outcomes, goals we certainly share. The UK’s housing shortage is a complex issue, and one with regional variations. The Government would like to see 300,000 new homes built every year to match demand and keep housing costs affordable, but as a nation we have yet to hit that target. SCF Residential is a powerful tool that can speed up the process, ensure resilience and help relieve the pressure."
The new deal complements the current SCF Construct and SCF Consult frameworks which have delivered over £7 billion worth of combined construction schemes in the last 14 years since they were first established. In addition to the lots for larger developments, smaller value projects of between 10-75 units will also be delivered as part of SCF Residential in seven sublot regions, which will be focused on local delivery.
