Fit-out business joins NHS framework
WARRINGTON-based fit-out specialist Morris & Spottiswood is targeting health sector growth after landing an NHS framework agreement which enables it to bid for work worth up to £2m .
The £74.4m turnover business has been formally approved to join Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust contractor framework for building, mechanical and engineering works.
Morris & Spottiswood North of England managing director Jon Dunwell said the deal which kicked in on May 1 will provide a three-year window to tender for contracts on NHS sites across Leeds.
He said the firm is already poised to deliver projects on sites including St James’s University Hospital, Leeds General Infirmary, Chapel Allerton Hospital, Seacroft Hospital, Moor Road Pharmacy.
“This is a significant step forward for our North of England operation as we look to develop our footprint in the health sector,” he said.
“The Leeds NHS framework agreement provides the entry point to compete for a broad range of projects including demolitions, construction, installation, removals and refurbishment work.
“The framework approval is a statement of credibility and an endorsement of the calibre of our services. It also critically enables us to competitively chase down contracts up to the value of £2m”.
