ISG secure North West schools contracts

Construction firm ISG has won a number of contracts across Cheshire and Manchester, worth £6.5m, through the North West Construction Hub Framework.

The primary school projects for Cheshire West and Chester Council focus on upgrading learning facilities; replacing pre-fabricated temporary buildings with permanent structures.

Some internal refurbishment works and external improvements will also form part of the projects’ requirements.

ISG will deliver the school projects on a rolling programme, however the contractor can be operating across up to ten individual school sites at any one time.

The majority of the schemes are due to be completed through the summer holiday period, ready for the start of the new academic year.

Managing director of ISG, Jim Parker, said: “The North West Construction Hub Framework has successfully simplified the procurement process for public sector construction projects in the region, delivering cost savings and ensuring consistently high standards of project delivery.

“The number of school extension and refurbishment schemes that ISG is carrying out for Cheshire West and Chester Council requires careful planning and logistical expertise, so our extensive experience of working within live school environments has been essential in ensuring continued successful outcomes.”
