Summary of the contracting process

The Government Commercial Agency has established a pan-government framework for facilities management and security services. It is intended for central government departments and other UK public sector bodies, including local authorities, health, police, fire and rescue, education and devolved administrations. The scope covers total facilities management, hard facilities management, soft facilities management, total security services, security officer services, physical and electronic security systems and services, and security advisory and assessment services. Work may be delivered across the UK, Crown Dependencies, overseas territories and a wide range of international locations. The framework also covers related maintenance, installation, engineering, cleaning, environmental, technical, training, consultancy, security and risk-assessment activities. It is a services procurement designed to support public-sector buildings, estates and operational sites.

The procurement has been awarded through an open procedure and is now an active, signed framework. Eleven lots were awarded on 7 August 2026, with contracts signed on 20 August 2026. Each lot has an estimated value of £120,000,000,000 excluding VAT, or £144,000,000,000 including VAT; these figures apply separately and must not be added together. The framework contracts run from 20 August 2026 to 19 August 2034. Lots cover total facilities management at three annual-value bands (£0–£2m, £2m–£15m and £15m+), hard and soft facilities management at two bands, and four security specialisms. Awards were made to multiple suppliers: 37 on total FM £0–£2m, 28 on total FM £2m–£15m, 18 on total FM £15m+, 63 on hard FM £0–£2m, 42 on hard FM £2m+, 36 on soft FM £0–£2m, 28 on soft FM £2m+, 23 on total security, 55 on security officers, 39 on physical and electronic security, and 30 on security advisory and assessment. Evaluation combined price with quality, social value, contract management, continuous improvement, innovation and service delivery. Suppliers paid a 1% levy on charges invoiced under call-off contracts, excluding specified pass-through and redundancy costs.

This framework shows sustained public-sector demand for suppliers able to deliver facilities management and security at national scale through a multi-supplier route. Relevant businesses include integrated FM providers, hard-services engineering and maintenance contractors, soft-services operators, guarding companies, electronic security and access-control specialists, and security advisers or risk assessors. Credibility depends on sufficient legal, financial and technical capacity, with the ability to manage contracts, demonstrate reliable service delivery and operate across diverse public-sector sites and locations. The evaluation placed substantial emphasis on social value, contract management, continuous improvement, innovation and measurable hard or soft FM performance; security lots also tested security management and specialist service delivery. SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises were identified as suitable participants, while the broad supplier field indicates strong competition and the value of focused capability, scalable resources and public-sector delivery experience.

Planning Information

Market engagement for RM6378 began in March 24, starting firstly at an event on 7th March 24 with incumbent suppliers, with a retrospective analysis of the existing agreements and exploration of merging the current FM and Security frameworks into one single agreement. Following issue of the PIN for a merged FM and Security Services agreement, between August and November 2024 engagement covering a multitude of areas, including the main themes of: Framework length and type, Lotting structure, Services in scope, Specification and standards, Pricing, Contract performance management (KPIs), Social value, and T&Cs. This was through questionnaires and surveys to our list of registered suppliers consisting of those that responded to the PIN, and 121 meetings with all suppliers who requested a session. We published webinar updates for both suppliers and customers to our webpage in September and December 2024. Between January and May 25 this engagement has been focussed on some specific areas including: Specification, Pricing, Terms and Conditions, KPI / performance management and Social Value. This has been through sharing questionnaires and draft documentation (such as draft specification Work Packages), and receiving feedback. There has also been a roundtable meeting focussing on billable works on 8th April 25, with invitations shared to all registered suppliers. Notification was provided to all suppliers who registered under the previous PIN A face to face supplier event in Liverpool was held on the 1st July 2025. The format of the day included an opportunity to engage further with suppliers through presenting the findings of our engagement and the subsequent decisions taken to develop the framework. We also included an overview of the bid process to familiarise suppliers with the process and any changes following the introduction of the new Procurement Act 2023. Suppliers were then given the opportunity to ask questions. Notification has been provided to all suppliers who registered under the previous PIN. We published the recorded presentation onto the CCS webpage for suppliers that were unable to attend. COI If the participant is in any situation which might (or which might be perceived to) give rise to an actual or potential conflict of interest in connection with the procurement, CCS may make further enquiries to identify any such conflict or to satisfy itself that none exists, or that it can be effectively managed. CCS may require the participant to provide such further information as CCS might specify for any such purpose or may require the participant to withdraw from the preliminary market engagement if, in CCS’s reasonable opinion and at its sole discretion, any of the above issues have arisen or may arise and there are no other means to ensure the equal treatment of all potential suppliers. Prior to requiring any such withdrawal, CCS shall provide the participant in question with the opportunity to prove that its capacity as a participant is not capable of distorting competition. Further Pre - ITT engagement We encourage interested suppliers who have not done so already to register their interest in the RM6378 procurement by emailing rm6378@crowncommercial.gov.uk Please review the CCS RM6378 webpage below for further updates as we progress with the process. https://www.crowncommercial.gov.uk/agreements/RM6378
