Firms line up legal challenges to £750m UK SBS framework

摘要

Turner & Townsend and EC Harris are taking legal steps to challenge the award of a £750m public sector consultants' framework, Building understands. Separate market sources told Building that Turner & Townsend (T&T) has engaged lawyers to work on a potential challenge, and that EC Harris is also working on a challenge, after both firms missed out on places on four of the five lots of the Project Management and Full Design Team Services framework. This was awarded by the government's private sector procurement partner UK Shared Business Services (UK SBS) this month.
