The NEPO Construction Category aims to provide innovative, value for money solutions to meet the requirements of the entire public sector within the North East region. As a member of the National Association of Construction Frameworks (NACF) and the Local Government Association Construction Category Board NEPO intends to also drive best practice within the construction market.
This framework provides contracting authorities in the North East of England with a quick cost effective route to market to award Civil Engineering and Infrastructure contracts. Authorities may either conduct a mini competition against all contractors on a particular lot or in the case of emergencies make a direct award on a ranked contractor basis. The framework consists of 15 lots covering different types of works and values.
This framework is led by Sunderland Council as part of the Hub & Spoke model operated by NEPO. Read more about Hub & Spoke on our About Us page.
