It includes 29 suppliers, 18 (62%) of which are SMEs.<\/p>\n<p>The new 6 lot structure covers a range of premanufactured building options with a consolidated agreement and will promote the standardisation of building design across large portfolios of government infrastructure. It is hoped this will enable greater efficiencies of time and cost savings through the project lifecycle, ultimately saving the taxpayer money.<\/p>\n<p>John Welch, Deputy Director \u2013 Construction, Crown Commercial Service says:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis new framework will support the public sector in the design, delivery and commissioning of a whole range of offsite construction projects in the coming years, including social housing, new schools and hospital extensions. These projects, and the many more which will come, have the potential to improve services and the lives of millions of people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is yet another example of how CCS is helping the public sector to support the government\u2019s construction strategy and further supports the recently published refresh of the Construction Playbook with its MMC guidance note. \u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The two Kier JVs will allow Kier to deliver on the OCS framework<\/h3>\n<p>The two JVs will allow Kier to deliver on every Lot in the OCS framework, which provides public sector organisations with all elements of offsite construction solutions, from design, fabrication, construction and installation, through to direct access to manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p>3D Lots within the framework will be delivered by Kier McAvoy, and 2D Lots by Kier Metek.<\/p>\n<p>Stuart Togwell, Group managing director at Kier Construction, said: \u201cBuilding on the ambitions of the Construction Playbook of using MMC and offsite solutions to drive improvements is a core imperative for Kier, and securing a place on all Lots means we are well-placed to support the delivery of vital new infrastructure in the UK.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur forward-thinking JVs with McAvoy and Metek will allow us to provide more capacity and high-quality end-to-end solutions for our public sector clients and to continue to deliver the best value through innovation across the wider industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Integra Buildings appointed to the framework<\/h3>\n<p>Modular specialist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.integrabuildings.co.uk\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Integra Buildings<\/a> has also been named on the framework.<\/p>\n<p>Since joining the Modular Buildings Solutions framework in 2019, Integra has delivered a series of key projects for clients including Network Rail, the Environment Agency and the Department for Work and Pensions.<\/p>\n<p>Contracts completed under the previous framework include the construction of temporary housing for Reading Borough Council, a new job centre in Birmingham and modular units which were shipped to Cyprus for use by the Ministry of Defence.<\/p>\n<p>Integra designs and constructs buildings off-site in controlled conditions at its purpose-built factories in Paull, East Yorkshire, before delivering and installing them in situ, a process that reduces project timescales and minimises disruption to customers, with no compromise on quality.<\/p>\n<p>Gary Parker, managing director at Integra Buildings, said: \u201cTo be named on the new Offsite Construction Solutions framework is a huge vote of confidence in Integra and our proven capability to deliver major public sector projects to the very highest standards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince being appointed onto the old framework four years ago, we\u2019ve delivered some of the biggest projects in our 25-year history. Integra continues to grow and evolve, with clients right across the UK.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe offsite and modular construction sector continues to expand at pace and being named on this framework ensures we\u2019ll remain right at the forefront of that exciting journey.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crown Commercial Services&#8217;
