- Telford & Wrekin Council;
- Worcestershire County Council;
- Shropshire County Council;
- Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council;
- Herefordshire County Council;
- Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council;
- Staffordshire County Council;
- Stoke-on-Trent City Council;
- Wolverhampton City Council;
- Walsall City Council;
- West Midlands Combined Authority;
- Birmingham City Council.
Please note that the value of £25,000,000 stated within this Contract Notice is the aspirational spend across the three Authorities, and any other stated Authority within this Contract Notice that may join the Framework. Please note that there is no guarantee of any work being placed through this Framework.
Whilst the amount stated above is aspirational, the estimated spend over the four year term within the Councils currently proposed to use the Framework from its establishment (WCC, SMBC, CCC) is closer to £16,000,000 based on previous activity. However, as stated above, this is only an estimate, and there is no guarantee of any work being placed through this Framework.
