The McAvoy Group has been appointed to work on the LHC Modular Buildings Framework. The work that has been scheduled is thought to have a combined value of more than £1 billion. The LHC is known as one of the UK’s longest-established public sector procurement specialists.

McAvoy has managed to secure this position by winning the tender for 15 lots and achieving the highest score for education buildings as well as factory processes and for BIM, out of all of the companies that submitted bids to be a part of the LHC framework. McAvoy also managed to top in the workstream WS1 for permanent and interim education and healthcare buildings. The high finishing result by the company, and their selection for the LHC Modular Buildings Framework means that more public sector clients will be able to award contracts directly to the company.

The McAvoy Group is one of the UK’s leading offsite construction specialists. The Group has already managed to secure their first scheme following their success on the LHC framework. This project is an interim classroom project that has been carried out on behalf of Cardiff Council. The building will accommodate 60 children at Court Special School and will be used for three years in order to help to meet the rising demand for school places.

The LHC frameworks have been setup in order to give public sector building clients the benefit of a faster and more efficient procurement operation as well as the best value pricing, instant access to project data and the reassurance of higher quality, guaranteed service levels and a faster project commencement time period. It was vital for McAvoy from their appointment that they develop virtual models of their clients’ buildings in order to facilitate a more informed decision making process while also working to enhance the engagement of their stakeholders.
