Heating, Renewables and Electricals
Introduction
The Heating, Renewables and Electricals framework, managed by Fusion 21, is a strategic procurement route designed to facilitate projects within the Environmental & Energy sector. This framework spans a five-year period, concluding on 28th January 2028. It is not a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), which means that it is a closed framework with predetermined suppliers. The framework is structured into multiple lots, each targeting specific areas of expertise within fire suppression systems, sprinkler systems, and water mist systems. The primary aim of this framework is to connect public sector bodies with reliable and experienced partners, ensuring efficient project delivery and management within the specified domains.
Context & Use Case
This framework is tailored for contracting authorities seeking a streamlined approach to procuring services related to heating, renewable energy, and electrical systems. It is particularly valued for its flexibility in contract management, allowing for a range of services that can adapt to diverse project requirements. By offering regional coverage, the framework ensures efficient and effective local delivery. Authorities can select partners based on their expertise and ability to meet specific project needs, with the option to customize detailed specifications during a mini-competition process. This adaptability supports various types of installations, whether as installation-only projects or comprehensive supply and fit services.
Scope of Services
The framework is divided into three primary lots, each focusing on distinct service areas. 1. Lot 1 covers the management of design, supply, installation, and maintenance of fire suppression systems and associated fire safety works. This includes working with companies such as AJS Ltd, Argus Fire Protection, and ENGIE Regeneration Ltd. 2. Lot 2 is dedicated to the design, supply, installation, and maintenance of sprinkler systems. Suppliers in this lot include Domestic Sprinklers Ltd, Harmony Fire Ltd, and Nationwide Fire Sprinklers. 3. Lot 3 focuses on the design, supply, installation, and maintenance of water mist and associated systems, with companies like iMist Ltd and Xcell Misting Ltd participating.
Who Can Apply
This framework is not open to new applications throughout its duration, as it is not a DPS. The suppliers listed within each lot are pre-approved and have been selected for their expertise and capability in delivering the specified services. Suppliers and contractors within the Environmental & Energy sector who are not currently part of the framework will need to explore other opportunities or await future procurement cycles to become eligible for participation.
Buyer Benefits
Public sector buyers utilizing this framework benefit from a compliant procurement route that accelerates the speed to market. The pre-selection of suppliers ensures a competitive environment, driving value and quality in service delivery. Additionally, the capacity to tailor specifications and conduct mini-competitions allows buyers to precisely align project outcomes with organisational objectives. The framework's regional coverage further enhances logistical efficiency, supporting timely and cost-effective project execution.
