All institutions require a range of facilities management services which can often be complicated to purchase but using this framework can help!
You can procure outsourced facilities management services and design them to best meet the needs of your institution. You can start from as few as any 2 services and grow the portfolio with your chosen provider over the term of your contract. It will save you time as you won’t need to complete a full tender process every time and it provides regional and national competition.
You can procure the following services and more using CPC's Facilities Management framework:
Full details can be found in the User Guide. Our recommended route to market is a full further competition process, inviting all capable suppliers on the appropriate lot to tender for your opportunity. A further competition calculator is also available which offers a faster method of call-off to those on tight timescales.
If you require support in running a further competition via this framework, Tenet Services can help. Tenet offer a nationwide service specialising in assisting education establishments to complete further competitions.
