Fusion 21 Appoints Suppliers To Its £250m Framework
Fusion 21 has announced the suppliers appointed to its national Materials Supply and Associated Services Framework worth up to £250 million over four years.
A total of 17 specialist firms have secured a place on the framework designed to supply construction materials to housing providers, and the wider public sector, managing the delivery of repairs and maintenance works.
Providing regional and national coverage, the streamlined framework offers innovation in service delivery solutions and technology – including energy efficient and net zero products and provides access to all goods required throughout the property life cycle.
Split into a total of 6 lots, the structure is:
• Lot 1 General Building Materials
• Lot 2 Electrical
• Lot 3 Plumbing and Heating
• Lot 4 Managed Services
• Lot 5 Kitchens
• Lot 6 Adapted and Accessible Living
Peter Francis, Group Executive Director (Operations) at Fusion21 said: "Our members are under increasing pressure to deliver efficient repairs and maintenance works while ensuring overall value for money, so we’re delighted the renewal will help to manage built assets effectively whilst achieving greater operational efficiencies and improving first-time fix performance.
"Thanks to member and supplier feedback, we're also pleased to offer a new Adapted and Accessible Living lot which includes adapted kitchens. This means members can call-off their adapted bathroom and adapted kitchen requirements from the same supplier.
"Other benefits of using the framework include working with a team of technical procurement experts and a rigorously assessed and approved supply chain, in addition to accessing a compliant and efficient route to market with flexible call-off options, a variety of cost models, and the option to accommodate multi-year contracts.
"The Materials Supply and Associated Services Framework will also support members to deliver social value they can see in communities, aligned with their organisational priorities."
