Scape’s existing regional construction framework has delivered 400 projects over the past four years.

John Simons, group procurement director at SCAPE, said the body had “enhanced” its framework for the region “to provide our public sector colleagues with the tools to not only deliver value-driven infrastructure in their areas but support their journey toward a net zero built environment”.
