Construction work

Tender description

DH is setting up a framework agreement for design and construction works and services in England specifically within a health and/or social care environment (ProCure22). Framework contractors will be known as Principal Supply Chain Partners (PSCPs). PSCPs and their supply chain shall be required to work collaboratively with users of the framework throughout the design and construction process from strategic planning to build completion and handover. The form of call off contract will be based on the NEC 3 Engineering and Construction Contract (as amended) (the Call Off Contract). This is a mixed procurement as its main subject-matter is works. It will also cover the provision of associated goods and services as required in accordance with the terms of the call-off contract. Typical projects expected to be undertaken under this ProCure22 include the design, construction and refurbishment of health/social care facilities. For full details refer to PQQ pack.
