Nov. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- Roy Hankinson Limited has been appointed following an unprecedented level of interest from contractors throughout the region, on the E N Procure Elemental Works Framework for the procurement of contractors to carry out work in the improvement and maintenance of housing in the region.
The Framework, which has an estimated £975m demand, has been developed by Efficiency North, a consortium of social housing providers in Yorkshire and the Humber.

The Framework is designed to deliver expenditure and process efficiency savings of 10% against annual throughput. Any surplus revenue accrued is collected in a 4 Good Fund which can be accessed by authorities using the Framework to fund projects which support the strategic themes of Efficiency North and realise the social and economic benefits in the local community.
A project team comprised of staff from the 5 Efficiency North member organisations leading the procurement, East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Wakefield and District Housing, Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, St Leger Homes and Sheffield City Council, all worked closely together to ensure the highest level of accuracy evaluating the hundreds of PQQs and tender documents.

All the successful contractors demonstrated in their tender submissions that the improved certainty of time, quality and cost the Elemental Works Framework aims to establish will be delivered. We are very much looking forward to working with them all.”
