The framework will start in December and run for five years, with an option to extend for another three.<\/p>\n

Civils packages cover roads, bridges, utilities and drainage, while M&E firms will handle installations, upgrades and testing.<\/p>\n

\nThe appointments come as MAG switches its investment focus from Manchester\u2019s \u00a31.5bn transformation to a \u00a31.1bn expansion programme at Stansted.<\/p>\n

The airport group pumped \u00a3555m into capital projects in the year to March 2026, including terminal upgrades, extra aircraft stand capacity at Manchester and cargo infrastructure at East Midlands.<\/p>\n

Stansted\u2019s five-year investment programme includes a terminal extension and supporting infrastructure to unlock more capacity from its existing runway.<\/p>\n

East Midlands is also pushing through a \u00a3120m improvement programme covering terminal refurbishment, roof renewals, heating and cooling upgrades, taxiways and airfield infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Its longer-term cargo expansion plans earmark 50 hectares for new facilities, with additional apron space for up to 18 aircraft.<\/p>\n
