Kier has announced it has scooped three major construction frameworks worth over £5 billion.

All of the frameworks have been secured since the Group's trading update on 04 July.

Kier has been awarded a place on the four-year £4bn Department of Health Procure22 framework as one of six principle supply chain partners which will begin in October.

Kier is also one of five suppliers on two five-year construction frameworks worth up to £750m at Gatwick Airport. The frameworks cover building and civil engineering projects up to £10m as well as a smaller works framework for building projects up to £1.5m.

The firm was also appointed a place on the two-year £500m University of Cambridge Framework to provide a range of facilities including laboratories, teaching and lecture spaces and sport facilities.

Kier Chief Executive, Haydn Mursell, said: "These awards demonstrate the breadth of our offering and the strength of our relationships with clients across a wide range of sectors, including healthcare, aviation and education. Such awards, which account for approximately half of our UK regional building revenues, enable us to work closely with our clients to deliver on their long-term requirements and they further bolster our strong Construction order book."
