Better for our local communities and economies

SCAPE's Hilary Carter, John Simons and Chris Clarke discuss how the new Construction framework will benefit your local community and economy.

In a world that’s seen significant and rapid change in recent years, priorities for your public sector funded projects have shifted focus to ensure that these vital amenities are built back better with social value in mind; that they help the economy, have a positive social impact, and reduce the environmental demands made by older buildings.

Putting communities and environments at the core of each project, right from inception, is the key tenet of the next-generation SCAPE Construction framework. Like you, we believe in creating tangible benefits to the people around us – not just for the duration of the project, but as part of a long-term, sustainable legacy.

We believe in the power of supporting people. By creating confidence in future work, local small businesses can be confident to invest in training, apprenticeships and employment opportunities, benefiting the local community and economy.

Through our frameworks, via our delivery partners, we want to empower you to help your local community be healthier, happier, and safer.
