The Venture frameworks supply multidiscipline design services, client advisory, development management and construction, civils and infrastructure services specifically to public/private partnerships and charitable organisations.
Scape Venture offers clients fully managed frameworks designed to allow privately funded projects to be delivered rapidly, with a robust governance structure and embedding the same socioeconomic benefits that its other frameworks do.
Scape says that the frameworks have been developed to assist local authority owned private companies, charities, joint venture (JV) partnerships and special purpose vehicles with projects that are privately financed.听听
They have also been designed to support the delivery of projects being undertaken by the privatised elements of public sector organisations and housing organisations, including the delivery of new schools which form part of a section 106 agreement.
Projects supported by Scape Venture to date include the RSPB Sherwood Forest visitor centre, the National Space Centre and the University of Cambridge Eddington Estate Management Office.
Scape鈥檚 delivery partners here are Balfour Beatty, Morgan Sindall, Robertson, Wates, Willmott Dixon, Woodhead Construction and Perfect Circle (a consortium comprising Pick Everard, Gleeds and Aecom).
