Nestled over in Digital House, Rise Construction Framework was founded in 2016 with a simple yet powerful belief: that a construction framework can deliver outstanding service to its clients while making a real difference in the communities where it works. Their innovative approach combines commercial success with meaningful social impact, creating a model that truly benefits everyone.
Rise Construction Framework: Uplifting Communities and SMEs through Pro-Social Procurement
As the UK’s only pro-social construction framework, Rise has a proven history of supporting communities in need through thoughtful procurement. With a strong focus on collaboration and delivering positive impact to communities, Rise has grown to comprise over 100 reputable supply partners, spanning 17 groupings that cover capital works and services. Their framework partners are trusted names, experienced in working with NHS Foundation Trusts, Universities, Local Authorities, and Housing Associations.
What sets Rise apart is its commitment to supporting the small-to-medium enterprise (SME) economy. An impressive 96% of Rise’s supply partners are SMEs, helping to sustain local economies and create valuable employment opportunities for communities. By leveraging the expertise of these SMEs, Rise ensures value for money while making a lasting social impact.
