New YORcivil Major Works framework awarded
18th December 2019
Eight contractors have secured a place on our new £2bn framework
YORcivil Major Works is a collaborative regional construction framework for the delivery of civil engineering and highways major works projects worth over £10m for the Yorkshire and Humber region’s 22 local authorities, other regionally based public sector bodies and third sector organisations. It will be managed on their behalf by East Riding of Yorkshire Council and Sheffield City Council.
This new framework will continue to grow the benefits delivered through YORcivil2, which includes cost savings for clients, and improvements in both project quality and programme delivery when compared to traditional one off procurements.
Councillor Chris Matthews, East Riding of Yorkshire CouncilIt is fantastic that so many small and medium businesses in the Yorkshire and Humber region will benefit from the new framework, and in turn hundreds of local jobs and places for apprentices and students will be created...
