Forty-four suppliers awarded entry on £35 billion CCS FM and Workplace Services Framework

Forty-four suppliers have been awarded a place on the new £35 billion Crown Commercial Service (CCS) Facilities Management and Workplace Services framework. The new framework replaces CCS’s Facilities Management Marketplace agreement, which delivered commercial benefits, including savings, of around 10 per cent for public sector customers procuring standard facilities management services. It supports the principles of the Government’s Sourcing Playbook by heavily weighting ‘quality’ in its contract award criteria, rather than lowest cost.
