Gleeds, has been reappointed to manage multiple lots of the NHS Building for Wales 2 National Frameworks. The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership has named Gleeds as an accredited supplier on the frameworks for the fifth time since 2007.
With an extensive track record of efficient project and cost management delivery in the sector, Gleeds can now bid to deliver multiple projects for the next four years, with the option to extend the agreement for a further two years. The framework has an estimated construction value of £615m.
Gleeds has been appointed to provide project management under Lot 1 and Lot 2 of the National Framework. Gleeds’ cost business will also be providing cost management services on both lots of the National Framework. Lot 1 of the framework will cover procurement for projects with a construction value exceeding £20m, while Lot 2 will encompass projects of a value between £7-20m.
The frameworks have multiple purposes, including ensuring NHS Wales complies with best practice models of procurement based on long-term strategic partnerships. It will also set out to support the Welsh Government’s Healthier Wales programme, as well as the guiding the NHS in Wales towards becoming an exemplary organisation for all major construction procurement projects.
Lastly, the frameworks will support the NHS in Wales to deliver improved value for money when procuring construction projects through team building, skills development and strategic partnerships with integrated supply chains.
These frameworks will play a huge role in Wales’s long-term plan to help the economy and provide better support for local communities, and we’re proud to be part of that. Being appointed once again to the framework is a testament to our team’s commitment to achieving successful outcomes for our clients and the communities they work for.
