Southern Construction Framework (SCF)
The Southern Construction Framework (SCF) offers public sector organisations throughout London, the South East and the South West, end-to-end support for construction projects and is a collaboration between Devon and Hampshire County Councils.
For the SCF, ISG has delivered projects in education, healthcare, sports, leisure and office sectors, and for the emergency services across earlier versions of the framework.
Examples of our work include a new build, three-storey 'lifestyle centre' at Petroc College in Barnstaple, Devon, construction of the North Devon Enterprise Centre, now known as Node and completion of the new Hamilton College SEMH school, formerly Phoenix College, in Reading.
The framework helps public sector bodies to achieve a fast route to market, that is OJEU compliant and cost effective.
Framework strengths and benefits:
- Structured governance procedures, supported by collaborative charters with commitments
- Structured PQ and ITT process, consistent bid levels
- Collaboration at all levels, regular senior manager meetings, open and transparent supply chain engagement
- Fair payment terms
