GRAHAM is celebrating huge success after being named on all three lots of the North West Construction Hub's (NWCH) new High Value Framework.

The framework, which aims to improve efficiencies, will see contractors deliver construction projects in markets including education, health, retail and leisure.

It is available to public sector bodies in the North West of England covering Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire and Cumbria.

The lots range in value from £8m-15m (Lot 1), £15m-£35m (Lot 2) and £35m+ (Lot 3).

GRAHAM will deliver 'Design & Build' or 'Construct Only' projects within each lot over a four-year term.


The firm's Strategic Alliances and Frameworks Director, Patrick McDonald, said: "We have strategically developed the GRAHAM business in the North West of England, beginning with the opening of our Manchester office in Salford (2012) and more recently our Liverpool office (2018), and this award underlines our now established reputation in the region. It is a tremendous result and presents us with unique opportunities to deliver lasting impact right across the North West. As a business, we are focused on partnering with clients and procurement bodies who share our vision and values. Collaboration is central to NWCH and that fits perfectly into the GRAHAM approach whereby true collaboration is at the forefront of every relationship.

"Working in partnership allows us to engage locally, provide greater efficiency and generate better value for money and social value outcomes for our clients and partners. We look forward to undertaking our first projects with NWCH in 2019."

NWCH Framework Lead, Joanna Chomeniuk, added: "It is very exciting to see some new names join our existing partners and there are already some interesting projects lined up with clients who have been eagerly awaiting this announcement."
