The Technical Standard defines the minimum required outcomes and lays out the codified expectations that any applicant for residential funding should achieve, as well as how these can be achieved. Embedding this robust standard as part of our future pipeline is essential to support the delivery of new homes enabled by the Deeper Devolution Deal (March 2023). Combined with guidance documentation for investors and developers, we will ensure the provision of clarity in relation to the standard, how it can be achieved and the benefits of doing so."

This will enable transparent and consistent decision-making based on compliance with the standard, and robust reporting and monitoring of impact and performance. While some within the construction industry will welcome this shift, and some already have plans to operate above the government’s standard, others can be reluctant to adopt new approaches, particularly in relation to a subject on which there is limited understanding at present. To achieve this, the Technical Standard makes provision for an ‘exceptions approach’ which recognises that, in some circumstances, the new standard cannot yet be achieved. In those cases, developers will retain their ability to apply for funding, subject to adopting relatively minor process changes and, crucially, measuring and monitoring the carbon performance of their projects. This is intended to drive understanding and behaviour change even where practical change is not yet possible."

The PMV metric allows developers to choose the most appropriate method for achieving the minimum level of off-site manufacture, which in turn will allow the market to decide the optimal technical solutions to achieve the performance standards required. This approach will support the establishment of a fully diverse supply chain which spans lower tech solutions such as timber framing through to more advanced panelisation techniques, sub-assemblies such as internal pods and service cupboards, innovative materials and new on-site technologies and process improvements."
