Kier has secured a spot on a new Crown Commercial Services (CCS) framework aimed at helping shape public sector construction.

The £30 billion framework is the first ever government-led construction arrangement for the whole public sector to use to find companies to help build new schools, hospitals, office buildings, universities, prisons, and houses, rather than having to run their own costly and time-consuming procurement exercises.

It will provide customers with access to a full provision of goods, works and service arrangements which enable effective management of built asset and property/estate requirements.

Kier has been named on 18 sub-Lots of the landmark framework.

Commenting on the award, Andrew Davies, Kier Chief Executive said: "This award demonstrates the strength of our relationships with Government and public sector clients, while also supporting our strategic focus around long-term frameworks for Government, regulated entities and blue-chip customers."
