Suffolk County Council has formally launched renewal of its construction framework expected to deliver a work pipeline of £750m.
Fourteen contractors are preparing to renew their places on Suffolk County Council’s construction framework, which is also open to councils in the East of England.
The four-year framework will be used for public sector building works, and presently has Morgan Sindall, Wates, RG Carter and Barnes Construction holding the high-value work bands.
The framework will be managed by Concertus Design and Property Consultants, a wholly owned company of the council.
This time around, the council plans to introduce four value bands to replace the three presently used.

The new framework should be in place by June next year. Firms can contact the council website for prequal documents or email Martin Jennings.
