## Summary

The procurement process for the "Communal Entrance Door Framework" is managed by Efficiency East Midlands Limited (EEM), a not-for-profit consortium supporting public sector organisations across England and Wales. The framework, valued at £250 million, is focused on the installation, maintenance, and supply of communal entrance doors, including associated hardware and access systems. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with contracts spanning from 11 January 2021 to 10 January 2025. This open procedure allows for multiple contractors to be appointed across several geographical lots, including the Midlands, South West, London and the South East, the North, and providers with national coverage, with the tender period closing on 19 November 2020.

This framework presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in the design, manufacturing, and installation of communal entrance systems, as well as those offering maintenance services. SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would find this tender particularly suitable given the inclusive procurement approach of EEM. Contractors with the capability to fulfil comprehensive maintenance agreements and those who are members of relevant door associations are well-positioned to compete for contracts under this framework, potentially securing work with various public sector entities who are authorised users of EEM's framework agreements.
