Portakabin has been awarded a place on a number of frameworks following a competitive Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) process.
Each framework offers the option of a turn key approach to the design, manufacture, supply and installation.
The competitive OJEU process has confirmed that Portakabin has the necessary insurances, certification, policies and procedures in place to meet all statutory requirements including building regulations.
These frameworks can be used by any public sector organisation.
Business support services for the NHS, providing innovative finance and accounting, employment and procurement solutions, which deliver operational efficiencies, improved service quality and cost savings.
A not-for-profit central purchasing body who develop frameworks for all publicly funded contracting authorities to procure works, goods and services to construct, refurbish and maintain social housing, schools and public buildings.
University Hospital North Midlands NHS Trust successfully gained funding for extra bed space, on condition that procurement, build and commissioning of the building was within four months. Engaging Portakabin through the NHS Shared Business Services framework made this possible, with manufacture of the facility beginning just seven weeks into the programme.
Following the unexpected closure of the University of Oxford’s largest teaching and research building, a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility was up and running without delay, with procurement through the SBS framework helping to streamline the process.
As part of the Government’s £4.4 billion Priority School Building Programme (PSBP), which rebuilds or refurbishes school buildings in the worst condition across the country, Portakabin was awarded a contract to deliver six schools in the Surrey and Kent batch.
As a framework agreement supplier, Portakabin has worked successfully with us to deliver several new school buildings across the city. For the Greenmount School project, Portakabin collaborated with us to develop a building design that fulfilled the school’s requirements. Importantly, they were able to provide a complete solution, as required by the framework agreement, managing everything from demolition and groundworks through to heating and alarm system installations.
