"Current figures have highlighted housing associations are spending around £5.4 billion a year on repairs and maintenance services and we expect demand in this area to continue to grow.

"Our national Reactive Repairs and Empty Buildings Framework comes at a time when tackling back-log repairs and disrepair works remains a high priority for registered providers, alongside targets to increase customer satisfaction within communities and deliver best practice.

"Fusion21 members accessing this complaint framework will work alongside a rigorously assessed and approved supply chain and will also be supported by our technical procurement experts to deliver social value they can see within communities."

Other framework benefits include measurable efficiency savings, plus flexible call-off options – including direct award and geographical coverage across the UK down to a regional and local level.
