Government Hubs Office Relocation to generate £1bn fit-out work
The Government has started the race for places on a major fit-out framework to deliver its estate reorganisation programme. The Government Hubs Programme aims to reduce the Government office estate from 800 buildings to around 200 by 2023. These will be centralised into 18 to 22 strategic hubs, located in major city centres.
The Government Hubs office closure and relocation plan is expected to generate up to £1bn of fit-out work over the next seven years. The major works programme will offer opportunities on a mix of small to large, and simple to complex fit-out projects across the country for a select list of preferred contractors.
Between 6 and 10 firms will be selected for the major projects lot jobs worth more than £25m around the UK. In total this will account for £500m of the forecast spend. For projects worth less than £25m, the UK will be divided into a northern and southern framework panel, each of up to 10 firms.
