Howard Civil Engineering are celebrating securing positions on a total of five frameworks within 14 months, after recently been awarded a place on North East Lincolnshire Council’s £73m Highways Framework.
The company is one of seven who have been shortlisted to tender for highways capital works to the value of £250,000 to £1.5m on behalf of North East Lincolnshire Council. Potential works on this framework include carriageway and footway reconstruction, traffic calming schemes, and civils works in connection with traffic signal and controlled crossing improvements.
Howard Civil Engineering’s place on the new frameworks is in addition to their existing framework awards which include North Yorkshire County Council Civil Engineering, City of York Minor Civils, North East Procurement Organisation Civil Engineering, Infrastructure Works and, most recently, Pagabo’s £1.56b National Framework.
Pre-contracts manager Brian Barton (pictured, left) played a key role in Howard Civil Engineering’s framework applications and is thrilled with the company’s achievements.
“To go from securing our first ever framework place in April 2021 to winning our fourth and fifth a little over a year later is a huge accomplishment,” he said. “We look forward to working in partnership with these organisations, using our award-winning value engineering capability and our highly experienced team of professionals to deliver a quality product and ensure client satisfaction.”
Brian’s sentiments are echoed by pre-construction director Peter Howard (pictured, right).
“This is a fantastic achievement for not only the business development team but the company as a whole,” he said. “I am delighted that our expertise and industry-leading knowledge has been recognised by two more framework organisations and I am confident that our impressive portfolio will support our delivery of these highways works.”
