Atkins<\/a> has been chosen for the \u00a31.6bn HPCCAS NHS Shared Business Services framework, which will be active until 2027<\/h2>\n

Under the agreement, Atkins will offer its primary design and engineering services, as well as Net Zero initiatives, Environmental Consultancy, and Sustainability.<\/p>\n

Atkins inclusion is aimed at helping clients achieve their goals of reducing carbon emissions and making their estates more environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n

Atkins has a proven record in the public sector<\/h3>\n

\u201cWe are extremely pleased to be appointed to this nationally significant framework. Having featured on the previous two iterations of the framework this reappointment reinforces our position as a trusted and innovative healthcare design partner,\u201d commented Alan Jarvie, framework director for Atkins.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important to note that this framework is not only available for use by the National Health Service but all other public sector organisations across the UK and gives a compliant, quick and cost-effective route for procuring construction-related consultancy services,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

Atkins<\/a> has been involved in various projects under the current framework agreements. These include designing a new forensics centre in Bicester for Thames Valley Police and creating a programme to streamline the University of Exeter’s properties.<\/p>\n

The HPCCAS framework is designed to provide cost-effective procurement for architecture and engineering. Over a thousand hospitals are set to benefit from the HPCCAS framework<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The HPCCAS framework will help the NHS achieve net-zero<\/h3>\n

The framework has a focus on sustainability<\/a> and will help construction firms ensure efficient supply chains and aid the NHS in reducing carbon emissions.<\/p>\n

As UK\u2019s biggest employer, the NHS contributes about 4% of the nation\u2019s carbon emissions. It has pledged to achieve net-zero direct emissions by 2040, and by 2045 for emissions under its control.<\/p>\n

179 suppliers, including many SMEs, are set to take part in the scheme. The framework could save the public sector \u00a3240m from the expected \u00a31.6bn spend over the next four years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to launch our Healthcare Planning, Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services framework agreement, which replaces our successful Construction Consultancy Services 2 framework agreement,\u201d said Melissa King, senior category manager for construction and infrastructure at the NHS.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is designed to support the NHS and wider public sector by providing high-quality, innovative and cost-effective solutions through UK-wide coverage, a unique depth of expertise and a broad range of suppliers,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n
