G F TOMLINSON SCORES HAT TRICK WITH THIRD FRAMEWORK WIN

G F Tomlinson kick-starts 2018 with a strong pipeline of work after being appointed to three major public sector frameworks.

Following a rigorous selection process, G F Tomlinson has been selected for the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) Construction Framework.

The appointment will see the firm deliver projects with values between £4.5m and £12m in the West Midlands and between £1m and £4.5m in the East Midlands, helping to meet increasing demand for local primary and secondary school places.

This is the second time G F Tomlinson has been appointed to this specialist education framework having previously delivered more than £38m of projects, creating more than 2,700 new school places in the East of England.

G F Tomlinson was also recently appointed to Scape’s Regional Construction framework which will see the firm deliver projects between £500k and £2.5m across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire over four years.

The new framework will provide public sector organisations and local authorities with high quality and cost-effective services from approved contractors. The Regional Construction framework replaces the empa framework which saw G F Tomlinson deliver more than 340 projects over eight years.

These follow on the back of G F Tomlinson’s earlier success securing a place on the Staffordshire County Council’s Construction Projects Framework, which may be used by several local authorities in the region. The framework will deliver public sector schemes between £2.5m to £9m, including schools, sports centres, care facilities and civic buildings.

Andy Sewards, managing director at G F Tomlinson said: “We’re proud to have been appointed to these three prestigious frameworks, which will see us maintain relationships in the East Midlands whilst expanding our reach into the West Midlands and beyond.

“Our successful appointments on the three frameworks is testament to the high standard of work we deliver and our commitment to deliver real social value to local communities.”
