A Gloucestershire manufacturing firm is part of a consortium that has been appointed to a £10bn framework of public sector projects.
Headquartered in Stonehouse, Metek specialises in light steel framing for modular buildings. Alongside construction firm Kier, the firm has been selected by government agency Crown Commercial Services for its new offsite construction solutions (OCS) framework.
The agreement, which will run for the next four years, will see the joint venture provide public sector organisations with all elements of offsite construction services, including design, fabrication, construction and installation, as well as direct access to manufacturers.
