Winvic Construction has been appointed to the £800 million Eastern Highways Alliance Framework (EHF4), securing a place on all three Lots over a six-year period.

The framework is managed by Central Bedfordshire Council and includes 10 other local authorities across the following areas:
- Cambridgeshire
- Essex
- Hertfordshire
- Kent
- Luton
- Norfolk
- Peterborough
- Southend-on-Sea
- Suffolk
- Thurrock
The objective is to speed up infrastructure development, streamline costs, and optimise resource sharing for public sector works across the East of England.
Winvic will undertake a range of schemes including highway improvements, bridge and structural works, subways, culverts and retaining walls, town centre enhancements, drainage systems, canal works, and waste management facilities.
Octavius Infrastructure joins Winvic on all three lots of the framework.
The Lots are divided up as follows:
- Lot 1: individual contract value of £5 million for each separate scheme (direct award and/or further competition)
- Lot 2: individual contract value between £5 million – £30 million for each separate scheme (further competition only)
- Lot 3: individual contract value over £30 million for each separate scheme (further competition only)
As well as operational competences, Health, Safety and Welfare and design credentials will be a key focus.
“Winvic’s commitment to safety, sustainability, social value and innovative construction practices ensures we are well-positioned to execute these projects efficiently while adding long-lasting value,” said Rob Cook, MD for civils & infrastructure at Winvic.
In August last year, Winvic delivered another strong financial performance despite challenging market conditions as it sought to fortify itself and its supply chain from a hardening of the bond market brought on by rampant administrations in the construction sector.
The Northampton-headquartered industrial specialist completed 38 projects in the year to 31 January 2024, with 80 per cent of its revenue coming from repeat business clients across its three key sectors: Industrial, Multi-Room Residential, and Civils & Infrastructure.
Turnover was £958.7 million, decreasing from the £1.2 billion achieved in the previous financial period, generating a pre-tax profit of £18.9 million (FY2023: £10.4 million).
