The new version of the NHS modular buildings framework runs initially from 5th July 2021 until 4th July 2023 and is expected to be worth £1.6bn to the selected 29 suppliers over the two year term.

The framework can be accessed by all public sector organisations in the UK including the education, and residential sectors, as well as healthcare.
