Ten firms have secured places on a new £1.5bn framework to deliver the programme of on-going repairs and improvements to the Houses of Parliament and its wider MP estate in London.
Bovis, Kier and Wates share the top slot for major mixed-discipline projects over £50m under the Parliamentary Construction Partnership framework to keep the Palace of Westminster safe and operational into the early 2030s.
The new set-up, which replaces the existing MEPFS (Mechanical, Electrical, Public health, and Fabric Safety) framework, has been broken into four lots covering M&E, building and fit-out works.
Works under the new seven-year framework will cover essential upkeep investment, rather than the full Restoration and Renewal plan for Parliament, which has still to be planned and agreed.
