The framework may also support surveys, inspections, planned preventative maintenance, emergency repairs and investigative works associated with existing installations. The framework is designed to support a broad range of publicly funded building types, including housing, schools, universities, healthcare facilities, municipal buildings, offices, care environments and other public sector premises across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. All works undertaken under the framework are expected to comply with applicable building regulations, safety legislation, environmental requirements and recognised industry standards relevant to the geographical area and project type at the point of call-off. The framework also places emphasis on quality assurance, competency, sustainability, product conformity, compliance with the Building Safety Act and the delivery of safe, durable and legislatively compliant installations throughout the lifecycle of the project.
