Work includes the redevelopment of existing fire stations in Middlesbrough, Headland, Thornaby and Grangetown with the first project starting on site in September.

ISG is expected to begin work on the new Hartlepool headquarters towards the middle of next year.

The framework is set to become a model for transparent project delivery and ISG will utilise the Fire Authority’s own web-based procurement system to engage the supply chain.

Alan McCarthy-Wyper, managing director – Construction, said: “This key regional capital works framework is an important win for ISG and further strengthens our credentials within the blue light sector.

“Frameworks offer a highly efficient procurement route for public sector clients, bringing projects to site quicker and more cost effectively, whilst fostering greater delivery team integration and supporting innovation.

“We are delighted to be playing a major role in modernising the property assets and operational capability of the Cleveland Fire Authority for future generations.”

ISG also confirmed it has won a £9m contract in the City of London for Lord Sugar’s property arm Amsprop.

The win was first tipped in the Enquirer in May and involves the revamp of a landmark octagonal building on Cheapside in the City of London.
