Delivery consortia
Infrastructure procurement routemap: a guide to improving delivery capability, published by Infrastructure UK and HM Treasury in January 2013 states: ‘The Delivery Consortia approach is adopted in sectors such as the regulated utilities where clients seek to transfer high value performance based contracts to a 1st tier organisation over the course of a regulatory control period. Under the contract the supplier undertakes the design of the projects from solution development stage against an output specification. The supplier also provides programme management services alongside design and build capability.'
