The GF Tomlinson Framework Director, Chris Flint said: “We are delighted to have been successful in our bid for the University of Birmingham’s new framework, which will see us build strong, long-term relationships with the University of Birmingham and its selected contractors and consultants to deliver the University’s ambitious expansion plans for campuses over the next ten years.

“We have established a reputation for delivering high quality, sustainable projects in the higher education sector, creating environments which nurture academic learning, research, and collaboration. This appointment provides further opportunities to build on this with the University and other HE institutions whilst at the same time reinforcing our presence in the West Midlands.”

The Head of Procurement, Jonathan Jones added: “The University of Birmingham has always prided itself on its scale of ambition to deliver first rate services and resources for its students and staff.

“With a planned additional infrastructure investment of £500M over the next few years, we also wanted to develop further procurement opportunities by creating our own University construction framework. This framework not only allows the University to optimise its value for money but is also available for other universities to use and benefit from the collective spending power and contractor relationship development.
