Pick Everard has been reappointed to the Government Commercial Agency’s RM6356 Construction Professional Services 2 framework, giving the consultancy access to major public sector construction and infrastructure projects over the next four years.

The framework has a total value of £3.5 billion and is designed to provide professional services for government departments and wider public sector organisations across the UK.

Pick Everard has been appointed across four lots covering general infrastructure and built environment services, project management, commercial management and international services.

The consultancy said the appointment positions it to support public sector capital programmes in areas including healthcare, housing, transport and infrastructure.

Alastair Hamilton, Chief Operations Officer at Pick Everard, said: “This is a major appointment for Pick Everard and a proud point in our history, reflecting the hard work, expertise and consistent success of our teams. Inclusion on this framework is reserved for firms that have demonstrated the capability and performance expected of a leading consultancy.

“This will provide us with a solid foundation to play a leading role in priority upgrades and major capital investment programmes that are set to transform communities and inspire further investment and growth across the UK.

“This appointment comes at a time when the UK construction industry is getting ready to deliver on the Government’s major infrastructure programmes.

“As these pipelines are accelerated there will be a heavy reliance on high quality professional services, such as lead consultancy and support services, protecting investments and keeping projects on schedule in addition to delivering excellent value for money.

“Our experience in strategic planning and project governance will help give public sector organisations the confidence and resilience they need to take advantage of improving market conditions and support from new Government programmes.

“Through the framework Pick Everard will play an active role in vital schemes that will form the cornerstones to prosperity, from improved healthcare facilities to widespread neighbourhood renewal projects.”

Builds on previous government framework work

The reappointment follows Pick Everard’s previous inclusion on the RM6165 Construction Professional Services 1 framework, where it provided consultancy support on government and public sector projects.

Ben Killeen, Group Strategic Development Director at Pick Everard, said: “Securing a role on the Government Commercial Agency’s framework is hugely significant and will play a key role in our strategy moving ahead.

“This will allow us to optimise and demonstrate our strengths as a multi-disciplinary consultancy in major public sector projects, building on existing relationships and developing new partnerships.

“This is a key focus for us and growth in the area is central to our own plans, capitalising on the vast experience we have in delivering projects in the public sector, which ties in with our rich history of championing social value.

“From our previous work with the framework we know the opportunities that lie ahead are significant and we look forward to playing an important role in some of the most high-profile projects designed to transform areas such as health, transport, energy and housing across the UK.”

The Government Commercial Agency manages procurement frameworks that enable public sector organisations to access construction and professional services from approved suppliers.
