The current Scape major project framework is set to run until 2021.

Four firms secured places on the five-lot framework last year, with Lendlease winning the UK-wide lot covering the largest projects worth 拢50m-plus.

Wates is on the lot covering the next tier of projects down, worth between 拢10m-拢50m.

Willmott Dixon bagged two regional lots covering England and Northern Ireland and Wales, while Robertsons has won the Scotland lot - all the regional lots are for projects worth between 拢2m-20m.

The framework has recently been used by Sandwell council in Birmingham, who awarded Wates the construction contract for the aquatic centre for the 2022 Commonwealth Games using the framework.
