Sewell Construction has been chosen as one of the suppliers for procurement organisation Fusion21’s Refurbishment, Construction, New Build and Modular Buildings Framework.
The framework is designed to support public sector organisations to deliver up to £305m worth of housing, education and healthcare capital works programmes, including building and refurbishing schools and hospitals.
Sewell Construction Joint MD Chris Soper said: “We’re really pleased to have been awarded a place on this framework, which compliments our place on the Fusion21 Decarbonisation Framework. Our team have extensive expertise across the public and private sectors, but some of our highest profile projects have involved constructing and refurbishing schools, colleges, universities and healthcare buildings. We’re looking forward to working with partners across the North of England to ensure that education and healthcare professionals can deliver services in world-class facilities.”
Paul Towers, Framework Manager (Construction & Decarbonisation) at Fusion21 said: “We welcome Sewell Construction to the framework. The tender process was highly competitive and has identified the best contractors for our members to use for the delivery of a whole range of construction programmes.
“Members accessing this framework will benefit from flexible call-off options, UK-wide coverage, and the option to deliver social value to their communities, aligned to their organisational priorities.”
