Nine win £800m Scottish schools deal

The Scottish Procurement Alliance has named the new line up of firms for its £800m framework covering schools and other public building projects.

Kier and Morgan Sindall have renewed their places on the panel for major projects in Scotland worth over £10m.

Newcommers Robertson Construction and McLaughlin & Harvey will replace previous framework winners Galliford Try and Farrans on the major projects element.

Although Galliford Try has been named as one of four preferred firms for projects worth £4m-£10m.

The Scottish Procurement Alliance came into force in 2016 as a result of discussions between Scottish contracting authorities who were clients of procurement group LHC.

The new framework, still procured by LHC, has been restructured this time around and also reflects new procurement regulations including use of project bank accounts.

Whereas Scotland was split into a north and south region before, the new framework now covers the whole of Scotland as well as several smaller regional lots.

Other previous framework partners: Balfour Beatty, Style and Woods and Ogilvie have dropped out.

Under the new panel another newcommer Hadden Construction secured all region lots for new build work across Scotland under £2m.
