We\u2019re confident that more new jobs will follow, supported by projects through this framework.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re also planning a major investment of up to \u00a31m in our in-house manufacturing capability, including upgrading our pure steel manufacturing facility, which will make the business more self-sufficient. That\u2019s on top of the \u00a33m we have invested on this site over the past 18 months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn our fast-growing industry, it\u2019s vital to keep investing in people and technology, so being a part of this framework will help us to secure the long-term future of the business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s also a great opportunity for our suppliers. 90% of them are based within 30 miles of our site, so by securing a pipeline of work, we\u2019ll broaden and deepen our supply chain and give other local firms a chance to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has chosen the 24 suppliers for its newly-launched \u00a31.2bn Modular Buildings Solutions framework.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[942],"tags":[276,916,627,696,639],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-56801","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-mmc-news","7":"tag-government","8":"tag-modern-methods-of-construction","9":"tag-modular-construction","10":"tag-offsite-construction","11":"tag-procurement"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>CCS reveals 24 suppliers chosen for \u00a31.2bn Modular Building framework<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has chosen the 24 suppliers for its newly-launched \u00a31.2bn Modular Buildings Solutions framework\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/mmc-news\/ccs-modular-buildings-framework\/56801\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"CCS reveals 24 suppliers chosen for \u00a31.2bn Modular Buildings framework\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has chosen the 24 suppliers for its newly-launched \u00a31.2bn Modular Buildings Solutions framework\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/mmc-news\/ccs-modular-buildings-framework\/56801\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;

We\u2019re sure she\u2019d like that. With a BA in English and Journalism, Steph isn\u2019t fazed by attention to detail; on the contrary, she enjoys getting her teeth into a good article. In her downtime Steph loves nothing more than getting together with friends to enjoy a few (several) gin and tonics. Think you\u2019ve got some content Steph would be interested in?
