The second framework will start to support the procurement of projects from November 2023 and run until 2027.
Henry Boot Construction’s Framework Manager, Jason Thompson, shared his thoughts on the appointment:
“The framework really aligns with our own company values ambitions – putting social value, sustainability and technical innovation at the heart of the projects we undertake.
“In the first edition of the framework we represented Yorkshire, seeing us secure the £7.5m Weston Park Hospital Linear Accelerator contract
“We are now thrilled to be able to increase our coverage and add East Midlands to the programme. This will offer us and our supply chain even more business opportunities further afield and continue to grow our reputation across the UK.
“It is also a fantastic opportunity to be able to build on the strong, successful working relationships we at Henry Boot Construction have developed with those in the Procure Partnerships team.
“Developing these relationships is essential to the success of frameworks such as this one. Collaboration and shared learnings are key to frameworks succeeding and that is something that we value greatly.
“This is not just an opportunity to bid for and hopefully win projects, but it also will help to provide us with the support and growth opportunities that will allow us to expand our regional supply chain – supporting the wider sector in the Midlands and the North of England.”
