hnThe deal will start in September and run for four years

In a prior information notice, Pagabo said it was creating a framework for 鈥渄evelopers capable of providing developer led schemes within the UK for the whole of the public sector鈥.

It added the framework will cover 鈥渁ll types of developer led schemes within construction and premises鈥.

Speaking to 好色先生TV earlier this year Pagabo chief executive Simon Toplass flagged the new framework, which is one of two new deals the organisation is planning to launch this year.

The other will be for those who use modern methods of construction.

The framework鈥檚 three lots cover a huge variety of works including harbour construction, residential schemes, bridges and tunnels, canals, aqueducts and leisure centres.

It will be open to all public sector bodies including schools, universities, local authorities, police and emergency services, central government departments, the Ministry of Defence and housing associations as well as NHS organisations.

The framework will run for four years from this September, with the option to extend for a further 18 months to April 2026.

Developers can register their interest on Pagabo鈥檚 tendering portal, with tender documents due to be published in the week beginning 6 July.
