The framework may also provide a multi-disciplinary planned maintenance solution for contractors capable of delivering works across a number of the above areas as part of larger investment or refurbishment programmes.

NHMF Frameworx is particularly keen to engage with Northern Ireland-based contractors, SMEs and specialist providers to understand the capability and capacity of the local supply chain and to ensure that the proposed framework structure provides appropriate opportunities for organisations of different sizes and specialisms.

The purpose of the preliminary market engagement is to seek feedback from contracting authorities and the supply market on matters including the proposed scope, lot structure, geographic coverage, contract values, delivery models, accreditation requirements and any barriers that could prevent suppliers from participating.

Feedback received will be used to inform the procurement strategy and subsequent tender documentation. Participation in this preliminary market engagement does not provide any advantage or disadvantage in any subsequent procurement process and does not represent any commitment by NHMF Frameworx or participating organisations to proceed with the procurement.
