A total of 45 firms have secured a place on Fusion21's £800 million national Construction Works & Improvements Framework.

The four-year framework, which goes live to the market on 01 April, will deliver capital works programmes with lots specific to housing, education, healthcare and the wider public sector.

It offers a range of internal and external refurbishment and improvement works through to the building of additional structures, and will support housing providers, local authorities, educational institutions and healthcare organisations to deliver regeneration programmes, modernisation and upgrade works, plus construction of all building types.

Peter Francis, Director of Operations at Fusion21 said: "Having responded to member and market demand we have created a commercially efficient framework solution that will support the delivery of refurbishment and regeneration programmes across the public sector.

"Our members will benefit from working with supply partners that have been appointed based on sector experience, competence and capability, whilst also having the option to select suppliers by region and value band to meet local delivery requirements.

"In addition, this framework provides value for money, streamlined price models, flexible call-off process and social value outcomes."

The successful firms, half of which are SMEs, include Borras Construction, Kier Services, H&J Martin, VINCI Facilities and Whitfield & Brown.
