Fusion21 has launched a £1.1bn workplace & facilities framework, to meet the facilities management needs of a range of public sector organisations
Designed to meet the facilities management needs of a wide range of public sector organisations in the blue light, central government, education, health, housing and local authority sectors, the framework is aligned with market requirements.

Lots 3 to 6 offer individual services and will allow interested suppliers to bid for lots specific to their capability.
The full lot structure includes:
Lot 1 – FM principal contractor
Lot 2 – FM managing agent
Lot 3 – Cleaning & washroom services
Lot 4 – Security services
Lot 5 – Waste management
Lot 6 – Building engineering services (M&E)
The framework includes flexible call-off processes with options for both direct awards and further competitions.
‘In response to market demand’
Peter Francis, director of operations at Fusion21, said: “Set for launch in February 2021, this framework has been developed in response to market demand – reflecting feedback provided from both our members and the supply chain.
“It marks the next stage in developing Fusion21’s FM offer which has grown from strength to strength over recent years.
“Fusion21 is an established framework provider that is well respected throughout the public sector.
“Our procurement teams are experienced technical experts in their fields that understand the needs of suppliers when tendering and a contributor to our success is how we work for the mutual benefit of our suppliers and members.
