Swindon-based construction company Beard has put itself amongst the elite of the construction industry by successfully gaining a place on the prestigious four year Construction Framework South West. The firm’s ability to deliver high quality buildings on time, and to budget, in the manner expected by variety of public sector bodies, was the main reason why Beard was selected for this prestigious framework.

Winning this framework has given Beard’s Swindon Office the opportunity to beat the economic downturn and continue its steady growth.  This in turn will help contribute to the local economy by the use of locally-based skilled labour and sub-contractors.

In short, this is not only a win for Beard but a win for Swindon and Wiltshire construction sectors.

Director Marc Bayley said: “For a construction company of Beard’s size, winning a place on this framework is a real coup.  There was stiff competition from major national contractors but our professional flexible procedures, coupled with a friendly approach, have contributed to help achieve this success.”

This latest win comes after Beard has expanded operations to the Guildford area, trebled its pre-tax profits and grown sales by 30 per cent.

The four year framework agreement covers all aspects of construction works procured by public organisations throughout Wiltshire, Somerset, Dorset, Avon, Devon Cornwall and Gloucester.
