| Balfour Beatty appointed to new Southern Construction Framework Balfour Beatty has been appointed to the new Southern Construction Framework which will provide it with access to a share of a total of £800 million of construction work in the public sector in the South West. The framework is administered by Devon County Council in the South West and is open to any public body in southern England including universities, schools, health trusts, local authorities, emergency services and museums. It is OJEU compliant, removing the need for individual procurement processes and reducing the costs of bringing projects to completion. It has been designed to provide tangible community benefits such as the engagement of local businesses, graduates, trainees and apprentices. Balfour Beatty is one of ten contractors appointed to Lot 1 for work in the South West and the company's place on the framework runs for four years from September 2015. Projects awarded through the framework will be valued at between £1m and £50m. write your comments about the article :: © 2015 Construction News :: home page |
