Kier, Bam and Vinci are among a host of firms appointed to a 拢700m capital works framework for three major UK airports.

Galliford Try and Murphy have also won spots on the five year deal (see full list below) for Manchester Airport Group, which operates Manchester, London Stansted and East Midlands airports.

The framework includes the option to extend by a further three years, bringing the total potential duration to eight years.

It is split into three disciplines, a 拢200m lot for civil construction works, a 拢300m lot for new build and fit out works and a 拢200m lot for refurbishment jobs.

Each discipline is then divided into 12 sub lots based on value bands and the airport at which the works will be carried out. Kier is the only contractor to have been appointed to all 12 lots.

Both Bam Nuttall and Bam Construct have been awarded places. Other firms to nab spots include Bowmer & Kirkland, Eurovia Infrastructure, Volker Fitzpatrick and FM Conway.

MAG capital delivery director Rob Stewart said the group has an 鈥渁mbitious pipeline鈥� of projects planned as it plots a route out of the impact of the pandemic on the aviation sector.

MAG reported a loss of 拢170m for the year to the end of March 2021 as passenger numbers fell by nearly 90% during the pandemic.
