Eight contractors have secured a place on our new £1.5bn framework

Following the success of the YORbuild2 framework over £10m category we are delighted to announce the launch of its successor the YORbuild Major Works Contractors Framework.

This is a collaborative regional construction framework for the delivery of major building works projects worth over £10m primarily 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, Leeds City Council, Scarborough Borough Council and Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council.

This new framework will continue to grow the benefits delivered through YORbuild2, which includes class leading social value benefits, cost savings for clients, and improvements in both project quality and programme delivery when compared to traditional one off procurements.

”
We were delighted with the number of major projects successfully delivered through the YORbuild2 framework on a collaborative basis and look forward to building on this success with the YORbuild Major Works Framework over the coming years working with some of the best regional and national firms.

Major Works is a prime example of the public sector and the private sector working together to benefit everyone and support the local economy

Steve Baker, YORhub Procurement Lead and Joint Chair of Operations
