BlueScope Construction announces its third consecutive, four-year Sourcewell contract in the Pre-Engineered Buildings with Related Materials and Services category. Earning this new supplier contract allows BlueScope Construction to continue providing best-in-class new facility construction and renovations through 2027 to city, county and state government agencies, plus education and nonprofit organizations. BlueScope Construction is the only design-build, turnkey contractor to be awarded this new contract.
Sourcewell is a leading government agency specializing in cooperative purchasing. As dedicated procurement experts, Sourcewell combines the buying power of 50,000 government, education and nonprofit organizations. It has awarded more than 400 competitively solicited contracts.
“I would like to emphasize to other municipality leadership to make it a team effort. Across the board this was a team effort,” said Jean Krack, fifteen-year borough manager for the Borough of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. “Sourcewell came to the table and allowed us to stay under the timeframe that we were under and under the budget. I don’t know if that would have happened with another entity; they made it happen. Both projects, the recreation center and fire station, came within the budget. I’m very glad to say the projects came in on time and on budget.”

The city of Urbana, Illinois, recently worked with BlueScope Construction, utilizing its Sourcewell membership to build a 23,500-square-foot multipurpose facility. Deputy Director for Operations, City of Urbana Department of Public Works, Vince Gustafson said, “Through the design-build process with BlueScope Construction, we were able to maximize our specific needs to our project budget, and ended up with as much square footage and under-roof space as we possibly could.” Gustafson added, ”Had we followed a traditional procurement process, it could’ve easily added six-to-eight months before we would’ve had a contract in-hand.”
Previous BlueScope Construction projects for Sourcewell members include government and educational administrative buildings, maintenance and storage facilities, police and fire stations, community fitness centers and indoor practice facilities, K through University facilities, healthcare facilities and aircraft hangars, etc. for both new construction and renovation contracts.
