Summary of the contracting process

The Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service has completed the awarding stage for a contract under the Fusion21 Building Improvement Framework Lot 9, aimed at the refurbishment of their residential properties across Cheshire. The project, titled "Fire Houses Refurbishment Programme - CPA/SPU/2743F - AWARD," focuses on building installation and completion work, primarily targeting kitchens and bathrooms, with flexibility for additional work as required by the timeline ending 31st March 2027. The initial contract period begins on 19th January 2026 and concludes on 31st March 2027, with potential extensions for a further 36 months. This procurement process utilises a JCT MTC form of contract and features Bell Group Ltd as the supplier, with the budget for the initial period set at £250,000 per annum and an overall value amounting to £500,000.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in building installation and refurbishment services, especially those with expertise in kitchen and bathroom updates. Companies capable of flexible service offerings to cover other building-related tasks over the contract's duration could find further prospects for involvement, particularly given the potential for contract extensions. With a focus on works under the Fusion21 framework, businesses already engaged or looking to become involved in public sector building improvement frameworks, such as small to mid-sized construction firms, would be well-suited to capitalise on this opportunity for business growth.
