Capital Works & Construction
Notice Description
Crescent Purchasing Consortium intend to create an innovative framework for the Education and Wider Public Sectors that will allow customers to efficiently appoint a contractor to deliver capital works and construction projects.

The framework is being delivered as a partnership with Crescent Purchasing Consortium acting as the Contracting Authority and Procurement Lead, Weightmans LLP will provide legal support and guidance throughout the life of the agreement and Identity Consult will provide technical support and guidance services.
