Health Facilities Scotland鈥檚 framework covers the delivery of new build, refurbishment and backlog maintenance projects.聽 The Frameworks Scotland 3 model will operate over a five-year period for publicly funded health and social care construction projects.
Six firms have been appointed as principal supply chain partners (PSCPs):
- Balfour Beatty;
- John Graham Construction;
- Kier Construction;
- McLaughlin & Harvey;
- RMF Health;聽
- BAM Construction (serving as a 鈥榬eserve鈥�).
BAM Construction鈥檚 appointment as the reserve PSCP is intended to provide resilience in the framework if one of the other five PSCPs is unable to participate in a project mini competition.
Each of the partners will act as a 鈥榦ne stop shop鈥�, carrying out a diverse range of design, planning and construction via their integrated supply chains.
Frameworks Scotland 3 is expected to deliver up to 拢650m of healthcare projects over its 5-year duration.聽 Its predecessor, Frameworks Scotland 2, has seen projects delivered or in delivery with a total value of 拢630m.
Gordon James, director of Health Facilities Scotland said: 鈥淥ur NHS is under immense pressure due to the current pandemic, and the need for future-proof healthcare facilities is paramount. Frameworks Scotland 3 provides our customers with peace-of-mind, knowing we have a team of leading construction firms vetted and eager to support new build and refurbishment projects.
鈥淥ur team has an in-depth knowledge of the framework and provide a wide range of technical and professional advice to client project teams throughout Scotland. Following our success with the recent NHS Louisa Jordan development we are looking forward to progressing a range of exciting and meaningful projects across NHS Scotland.鈥�
A PSCP may be engaged to undertake a variety of duties including service strategies, estate strategies, business planning, developing the brief, design development and construction works.聽 In addition to the construction phase of a project, a PSCP can be appointed at various stages in the capital project planning process from the initial agreement stage through to the full business case stage.
