Outcome-driven procurement and delivery
Partnerships with purpose.
Clear Futures is a long-term strategic partnership between Eastbourne and Lewes Councils (founding participants), and Robertson and AECOM (JV Partners), designed to deliver transformational projects which focus on sustainability, regeneration, renewables, strategic asset management and advisory services. It can be accessed by any other public body in the UK, by acceding to the partnership via an Accession Agreement to become an additional participant. There is no charge for signing the agreement, which provides new participants with the full range of services through a fully compliant procurement agreement.
