Gatwick Airport Development director Raymond Melee said: "The publication of three new frameworks sends a clear message to the industry that Gatwick has a pipeline of major construction work that will satisfy all types of construction industry partners.
"We are investing £2.5bn to transform our airport and continue to drive growth, while we wait for the green light to start building our second runway. With frameworks spanning a five year time-frame, it’s important that potential partners in the runway build are included in these frameworks so that we can keep the process moving forward."
The three frameworks will include airport planning services which will involve key infrastructure planning associated such as architectural and engineering services, urban planning, landscape engineering, technical consulting and analysis with the second runway.
The infrastructure will include runways, taxiways, aprons, aircraft stands, terminal buildings, piers, car parks, and engineering hangars.
