Regional Construction framework launched

The next generation of the Regional Construction framework was launched to deliver £750m of community projects over four years, supporting local authorities across the regions.

Through the fourth-generation framework, public sector organisations gained instant access to high-quality contractors and a strong local supply chain. For the first time, a net-zero-ready Life Cycle agreement was introduced, helping clients move towards a more sustainable built environment. Eight delivery partners were appointed — Jeakins Weir, Stepnell, G F Tomlinson, Lindum Group, Ashe Construction, Conamar, Clegg Construction and R G Carter — all enabling high-quality, compliant project delivery while creating social value, training opportunities, and local employment.
