The Arup team look forward to helping support, guide and provide deliverable and innovative solutions to the public sector over the next four years. ” Justin Evans UKMEA Board Director, Arup

“

We were very impressed by the quality of submissions we received from bidders. Over recent years we have supported use of our panels by over 200 public bodies and we look forward to this increasing. This panel, and our property panel, launched in June this year, will help the HCA achieve its objective of working with public bodies to help them deliver homes, economic growth and jobs. ” Deborah Vogwell Panels Manager, HCA

 Arup has been appointed, along with 18 other organisations, to the panel that now replaces the HCA’s existing multidisciplinary and engineering panels and has been procured through a fully OJEU (Official Journal of the European Union) compliant process. The new panel is made available free for use by a very wide range of public sector bodies including local authorities, central government departments, NHS Trusts and many others, to help them increase the speed and efficiency of their procurement processes.
