This tender, identified as EFM 3081 NW, is part of the goods category and involves an estimated value of £24 million. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 20th December 2019. The contract is scheduled to commence on 1st March 2020, lasting initially for two years until 28th February 2022, with possible extensions that could extend until 29th February 2024. The framework will operate under the open procurement method. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the plumbing and heating sector, especially those capable of providing large-scale goods and services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the inclusive nature of the Framework Agreement which allows multiple providers. Companies that supply durable plumbing and heating materials or offer comprehensive installation services may benefit greatly from participation, especially with the potential for future work with various public sector organisations that are expected to utilise this framework after award. ## Notice The NWUPC is seeking to establish a multi-provider Framework Agreement on behalf of the members of NWUPC, CPC, HEPCW, LUPC, SUPC and NEUPC for Plumbing, Sanitary and Heating Equipment, Supplies and Associated Services.
