The Capex Programme Delivery Framework has been established to provide design, planning, and construction services that support Cadent's Capital Expenditure programmes throughout the RIIO-3 period and potentially beyond. This Framework will play a key role in delivering investments that enhance, expand, and maintain the networks Cadent operates.
