Up to 80 places are available across 10 lots covering major remediation works, fire safety consultancy and the supply and installation of fire doors.

The two major works lots will cover external wall, façade and cladding remediation, cavity barriers, fire doors, intrusive surveys and wider refurbishment work.

The consultancy lots will cover fire strategies, risk assessments, compartmentation and cladding surveys, EWS1 forms and fire engineering.

The framework will be available to councils, housing associations, NHS organisations, emergency services, schools and universities.

Bids will be scored 50% on quality, 40% on price and 10% on social value.

The deadline for tenders is October 28, with spots awarded in January ahead of the framework going live in February 2027.
