Contractor secures place on £15bn construction framework
Caddick Construction has been appointed by the Department for Education’s (DfE) to four lots of the new £15bn Construction Framework 2025.
It marks the first time the Wakefield-headquartered contractor has held a role in the school rebuilding programme.
Securing a place on the next-generation framework, Caddick was successful in four lots for projects valued from £4.4m to £12m in the North East, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, and North West and West Midlands.
It adds to the contractor’s increasing presence on leading procurement routes as it targets a growing pipeline of public sector projects.
Replacing the previous Construction Framework 2021, the new iteration of the DfE’s school rebuilding programme will enable procurement of new build projects and refurbished works, with an emphasis on sustainability and the application of modern methods of construction.
Projects delivered by Caddick will include new-build primary schools, small secondary expansions, additional classroom blocks, SEND facilities, refurbishments and remodelling.
Paul Dodsworth, group managing director of Caddick Construction Group, said: “Being appointed to the Department for Education’s Construction Framework 2025 is a fantastic milestone for us.
“It’s the first time Caddick has been included on this framework, but we bring a long and proven track record of successful public sector project delivery across the North and Midlands.
“Our teams are specialists in delivering high quality and sustainable projects on time while prioritising innovation and value for money, and we’re looking forward to bringing that expertise to the DfE school building programme.
“This appointment also strengthens the balance of our project portfolio across both the private and public sectors, supporting sustainable growth for the business in the years ahead.”
