Constructor gets on second framework
PRESTON-headquartered Conlon Construction has secured a place on the North West Construction Hub (NWCH) Low Value Framework, comprising projects valued between £500,000 and £2m.
Having been approved by the NWCH to the Medium Value Framework in February 2015, this latest batch of works covers both construct only and design and build projects across the North West of England.
Twelve contractors have been selected for the Low Value Framework consisting of 10 lots over five sub-regions. Conlon ranked first in each lot.
Michael Conlon, chairman at the family-run business, said: “Being appointed to frameworks such as these are testament to the quality of work that we deliver and to have been selected for two bands is a great opportunity for the business.
“Procurement via frameworks is very common with public sector projects as it delivers greater efficiencies in terms of cost and timescales, so we’re pleased to have been pre-approved for work of this nature across the North West of England.”
The NWCH was established in 2010 in response to the Government’s drive to improve efficiencies and to add value to construction activity across Cumbria, Lancashire, Greater Manchester, Cheshire, and Merseyside.
