Property and construction consultancy EDGE has strengthened its position in the public sector after securing a place on a major government procurement framework.<\/p>\n
The Nottingham-based firm has been appointed to the Government Commercial Agency\u2019s (GCA) Construction Professional Services 2 (CPS2) framework, giving public sector organisations across the UK direct access to its project and programme management expertise.<\/p>\n
EDGE is one of 31 firms selected nationally for a new project management lot within the framework, which supports the procurement of professional services for major public sector construction programmes.<\/p>\n
The appointment enables central government departments and a wide range of public bodies\u2014including local authorities, NHS organisations, emergency services, education providers and devolved administrations\u2014to procure EDGE\u2019s services through a compliant route.<\/p>\n
The four-year framework is designed to streamline procurement and accelerate the delivery of complex public sector construction projects, with a focus on quality, efficiency and value.<\/p>\n
For EDGE, the appointment marks a significant expansion of its public sector footprint. Operating from seven regional offices across the UK, the consultancy supports organisations navigating challenges including budget pressures, estate optimisation, sustainability targets and the transition to net zero.<\/p>\n
The latest framework win also strengthens the company\u2019s credentials as a trusted delivery partner for public sector clients seeking specialist construction and property advice.<\/p>\n
Unjulee Karadia, Framework Lead at EDGE said: \u201cWe\u2019re proud to have been chosen by the Government Commercial Agency and look forward to continuing to grow strong relationships with public sector bodies across the UK. As a business, we combine strong regional investment with national reach, bringing a clear understanding of the priorities and pressures facing public sector organisations nationwide.\u201d<\/p>\n
Matt Hill, managing director at EDGE said: \u201cEDGE is now firmly established as a trusted partner across the public sector, combining deep sector insight with the capability to support organisations with evolving priorities and challenges.
