听A total of 83 companies have been awarded places on LHC Procurement Group鈥檚 (LHC) asset safety and compliance (ASC1) framework, which is now live.
ASC1 has been designed to offer asset safety and compliance support to help public sector organisations meet government guidelines and legal responsibilities relating to building safety and maintenance.
The framework is valued at 拢135m over its four-year life.
Its arrival follows the Social Housing (Regulation) Act 2023, which became law in July and requires affordable housing providers to more closely address the needs of tenants and appoint a health and safety lead to monitor compliance.
ASC1 offers a range of expertise including property protection and associated services; asbestos management; water testing, treatment, and management; heating and air conditioning-related services; and electrical testing.
LHC head of technical procurement Dean Fazackerley said: 鈥淲e spent a long time engaging with the public sector to ensure ASC1 worked with their need for long-term compliance-related expertise and support in fulfilling asset and maintenance requirements.
鈥淭hroughout our pre-tender engagement process, our clients acknowledged the positive contribution our existing frameworks in property protection (V7), asbestos services (AS2) and water management (WM1) have made in delivering effective life safety systems in the management and maintenance of their assets, resulting in benefits for tenants.
鈥淎SC1 is our response and combines these frameworks to enhance the services offered while also delivering two additional workstreams to cover a wide remit from gas safety to heating systems, electrical inspection, testing and servicing, and more, for both commercial and residential settings.鈥�
听Available nationwide, the framework will be delivered by LHC鈥檚 regional business 鈥� Scottish Procurement Alliance (SPA), Welsh Procurement Alliance (WPA), South West Procurement Alliance (SWPA), London & South East (LSE) and Consortium Procurement Construction (CPC) for the Midlands and north of England.
There are five workstreams under ASC1, including:
- Workstream 1: Asbestos Consultancy, Surveys and Removal
- Workstream 2: Property Protection and Associated Services
- Workstream 3: Water Testing, Treatment and Management
- Workstream 4: Heating and Air Conditioning Compliance, Servicing and Maintenance
- Workstream 5: Electrical Testing and Associated Services
