Morgan Sindall Construction appointed to new Essex Construction Framework

Morgan Sindall Construction’s Essex business has been reappointed by Essex County Council to the Essex Construction Framework (ECF3) for another four years.

The team has been appointed to Lot 2 (£500,000 - £4.5 million) and Lot 3 (over £4.5 million) of the framework, as it aims to improve the region’s educational offering.

In the previous iteration of the framework, Morgan Sindall’s team has been working with Essex County Council to deliver several flagship projects across the county.

This includes a whole raft of primary, secondary and specialist education needs (SEN) schools. Highlights include Trinity Primary School, Ormiston Rivers Academy, Cedar Hall School, St Luke’s Primary School, Clacton County High School, Limebrook Way Primary School, and more recently Glenwood School.

Outside of education, Morgan Sindall also worked closely with Basildon Council to use the framework as a vehicle to procure work for the much-needed Eversley Leisure Centre that opened earlier in 2024.

Throughout these projects, social value has been at the forefront of Morgan Sindall and Essex County Council’s priorities. Over the last iteration of the framework, Morgan Sindall projects have engaged with 23 apprentices, meaning 545 weeks of work experience and delivered £84.5 million in social value to the local community.

Morgan Sindall will continue to deploy its Intelligent Solutions approach on projects procured through the framework, which brings together innovative digital and platform design capabilities through proprietary systems such as CarboniCa, with modern construction methods and innovative carbon reduction tools to deliver outstanding results for clients and communities.

Previously, the team has enjoyed great success in sustainability, with Limebrook Way Primary School becoming the first diesel-free school in the region and recently completing the Net Zero in operation Sweyne Park School.

Ryan Liversage, Area Director for Morgan Sindall Construction in Essex, said:

As a local business that is deeply embedded within Essex, we are delighted to have been reappointed to the Essex Construction Framework. We’re exceptionally proud of the multiple high-end educational environments we’ve collaborated with Essex County Council on under previous iterations of the framework and which are generating significant benefits for local communities across the county.

Essex County Council has ambitious plans to provide the best possible learning experience for the next generation and we believe it is important to provide inspiring, sustainable places for children to learn, in order to best support them and help empower pupils to fulfil their potential.”
