High-growth Premier Modular wins a place on £1.6b NHS construction framework
East Yorkshire-based Premier Modular has been awarded a place on an NHS construction framework worth £1.6 billion.
It opens up huge opportunities to win work, with the Brandesburton team successful in all seven of the categories it applied for.
Premier also ranked in the top quartile of those it was bidding with.
The NHS Shared Business Services framework will run for up to four years and can be used by a range of public sector clients in the education, healthcare and residential sectors.
To qualify, Premier had to demonstrate their expertise and experience in offering a full turnkey construction solution, including feasibility studies, planning applications, architectural design, enabling works, site works, landscaping and commissioning.
David Harris, managing director of Premier Modular, said, “Our teams from across the business collaborated on the bid for this key framework, and it is a major achievement to have succeeded in every lot we applied for and with such high scores.

“This is a very valuable industry benchmark for our performance, environmental commitments, and capabilities for both our permanent, fast-track offsite solutions and temporary modular buildings. Our high scores also demonstrate exceptional value for money for public sector building clients.”
Building applications under the framework include hospital buildings, housing to address homelessness, care homes, teaching facilities for schools, and student accommodation.
Contracts can be awarded directly or via mini competition to reduce the time and cost of public sector building procurement.
It comes after it completed the acquisition of a business its new owner also had a significant stake in, Cambridgeshire’s NeZero Buildings. Cabot Square is the major investor behind both following a new year deal, and the coming together has added additional disciplines to the offer.
“The NHS Shared Business Services framework delivers significant cost and efficiency savings for the public sector,” Mr Harris said.
“We are delighted to have expanded our presence on the framework with places now in seven different lots – from decant school buildings and extensions to purpose-designed hospital facilities, health centres, and affordable housing.”
