Buildings Maintenance and Compliance
Framework guidance for NHS Trusts
A competitive tendering procedure is the default approach for most public procurement; however, call-off contracts may be awarded with or without competition between suppliers on the framework, as set out in the Procurement Act 2023 (the Act).
NHS Trusts calling off under an EEM Framework Agreement, without re-opening competition, may instruct the performance of the services by selecting a Framework Provider based on the EEM Framework Agreement Objective Mechanism:
(a) the Framework Provider with the highest overall ranking.
A transparency notice must be published before a contract is directly awarded, in order to comply with the Procurement Act 2023 (the Act).

FAQs
How can providers join an EEM framework or DPS?
We advertise opportunities to join an EEM framework on websites such as Find a Tender (FTS) when we are creating a new opportunity, or a current framework is approaching the end of it’s life span (usually every 4 years). Suppliers may join a DPS at any time during the DPS term. The Find a Tender (FTS) advert remains open on the relevant websites throughout the DPS life span.
Suppliers may wish to find the framework(s) that suits them best on our framework pages and hit the button to request to be notified when the next opportunity to join arises.
Some of our frameworks require contractors to be able to cover a wide variety of works. If your organisation only covers one small aspect of works required, we recommend that you contact our current successful contractors to enquire about sub-contracting opportunities.
