Novo-K ran that procurement on behalf of KBS. The framework gives KBS a pool of Tier 1 and Tier 2 subcontractors to call off. The four lots cover waterfront, building and construction, professional services and systems. Awarded suppliers must be able to provide services within 30 days.

Over the past 5 years, most of KBS Maritime's contract awards have been in construction work, electrical equipment and lighting, and industrial machinery.
