The company, part of the Eric Wright Group, has been placed on the new NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) Healthcare Planning, Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services Framework. Agreement, Lot 9 Healthcare Planning.

The four-year framework agreement provides a fully compliant route to market to procure a range of healthcare planning, construction and ancillary services.

Eric Wright Partnerships has been appointed to the framework agreement for projects across the North West and Yorkshire regions, having a wealth of experience in designing and developing new health and social care facilities.

The framework agreement will see the Partnerships team working with the NHS’s wider healthcare design teams on projects of various scales and will involve planning the community’s future healthcare requirements, facilities and clinical sites. 

A key part of the role will be advising the NHS and project design teams on current best practice in meeting key service objectives, improving clinical strategy and design requirements, interpreting health policies and guidance, and optimising the efficiency of healthcare sites.

Eric Wright Partnerships secured its place on the framework agreement having previously provided healthcare planning services for the development of health centres in Ashton-in-Makerfield, Wigan and at Kirkholt in Rochdale (pictured), as well as the optimisation of a number of public private partnership portfolios.

The framework agreement offers flexibility for public sector clients, with the ability to appoint Consultants via direct award or mini competition procurement routes.

Wayne Ashton, healthcare consultancy director at Eric Wright Partnerships, said: “It gives us the opportunity to work with a wide range of NHS and public sector clients. Our experienced healthcare planning team is looking forward to using its expertise to support the design and development of new health and social care facilities across the North West and Yorkshire regions.”
