Delivery: Yorkshire & Humber, East Midlands · Yorkshire and the Humber UKE and Sheffield Local Enterprise Partnership region that includes Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire (UKF1). Further details as set out in the framework procurement documents
Extensions: The framework has an initial term of 48 months and an option to extend for a further period of 2 years to allow the appointed contractors adequate time to recoup their significant initial investment in establishing processes and procedures that will deliver the improvements that the clients are seeking through this framework. These include Economic Regeneration, Carbon and Waste Reduction, Training and Employment initiatives, training of their staff to new ways of working, BIM, the Construction Playbook and Construction Innovation. In addition there will be significant investment required from clients in undertaking the selection and evaluation process, and in particular the training of their staff and consultants to new ways of working. The partnering and collaborative working objectives that will form part of this framework may only be capable of being realised over longer periods of time than 4 years, not least because a number of Local Authorities may only start using this framework when their existing arrangements expire. Further details are set out in the framework documents.Variant bids: not allowed
