Welcome to our February 2025 framework agreement update.
Decarbonistion of Estates Launches
January 2025 saw our Construction and Estates team launch the Decarbonisation of Estates Framework Agreement. This latest addition to their portfolio supports customers in the delivery of decarbonisation and retrofit works. It reduces the environmental impact of service delivery through the use of innovative equipment, reduced energy and fuel consumption, and the monitoring of retrofit projects. The framework agreement offers a complete decarbonisation approach and supports organisations with their green plans.
Building Safety and Fire Compliance
The second half of February will see the Construction & Estates team launch the next framework agreement from our range of soft facilities management (soft FM) framework agreements. The Building Safety and Fire Compliance Framework Agreement can be utilised by the NHS and wider public sector. It upholds building safety compliance, a cornerstone in safeguarding the well-being of staff, visitors, and, crucially, NHS patients. It aligns seamlessly with national priorities, ensuring that all buildings meet stringent safety standards, and are fit for purpose for patients, visitors and staff alike.
If you would like to be notified when this framework agreement launches, please sign-up to our mailing list this this link.
