Scape Group Selects Consortium To Deliver £350m Framework
Scape Group has selected a consortium of companies to deliver its £350 million National Built Environment Consultancy Services (BECS) framework.
The 'Perfect Circle' joint venture (JV), comprising of Pick Everard, Gleeds and AECOM, will work together to offer a range of consultancy services and deliver public sector projects.
The group will be supported by up to 150 SMEs as local supply chain partners and will unite/extend services available under two of Scape's existing frameworks: the National Asset Management, Surveying & Design Services framework and the National Project Management and Quantity Surveying framework.
Mark Robinson, Scape Group Chief Executive, said: "In the current uncertain economic climate, rapid appointment, access to the right skills and advice to get the best from the public estate will be absolutely critical. This is why we have created this all-encompassing framework, uniquely designed to deliver exceptional results to our public sector colleagues.
"In addition to measuring this framework against monetary and time-saving criteria we will also be measuring against socio-economic criteria, which includes use of local businesses within the supply chain, minimum levels of local spend and apprenticeship creation."
Chairman of Perfect Circle and Managing Partner at Pick Everard, Duncan Green, added: "Perfect Circle brings together three industry leading organisations into a full service consortium that has the influence, scalability and expertise to make a significant and positive contribution to the challenges currently affecting the public sector.
"The consolidation of consultancy services into one framework presented a unique opportunity for our respective businesses to join forces and create an offering of unrivalled added value and efficient solutions nationwide."
