Mace Construct And Willmott Dixon Selected For NHS P23 Framework
Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has selected Mace Construct and Willmott Dixon have to all three lots of the NHS ProCure23 (P23) Framework.
The appointment marks a significant step forward for collaborative construction in England's healthcare sector.
It will allow the two leading UK contractors to work together on NHS construction projects. The alliance will see the two firms collaborate on projects together under a FAC-1 Framework Alliance Contract.
CCS supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services. In 2020/21, CCS helped the public sector to achieve commercial benefits equal to £2.04bn - supporting world-class public services that offer best value for taxpayers.
P23 is the fourth generation of the ProCure framework for the design and construction of NHS capital projects with an expected cumulative spend of £9bn during its lifespan. P23 enables NHS clients to quickly access experienced and proficient partners to support excellence in all aspects of NHS capital project delivery, including business case development, sustainability, design, construction (including modern methods), disruption mitigation, benefit realisation and optimised occupation.
The new commercial agreement recognises the importance of public sector construction as a key driver of economic recovery, providing health bodies in England with a new route to market for construction works and associated services, and helping the UK to build back better. It adopts the principles of the Construction Playbook, rationalising frameworks in an innovative partnership between Crown Commercial Service (CCS) and NHS England and NHS Improvement.
The Mace and Willmott Dixon alliance will allow P23 Framework users to draw on the combined expertise, skills and capacity of both firms for construction projects of any scale and complexity, with the complementary strengths of Mace and Willmott Dixon able to provide a wider, more holistic service for a consistent delivery of all project values.
The appointment to all three lots means that the two contractors will be available to deliver work across the three value bands identified by the framework: regional projects valued below £20m, projects between £20m to £70m and projects worth more than £70m.
