Fusion21 prepares a GBP 750m construction and refurbishment framework for 2027 to 2031

A GBP 750m public sector construction framework is being renewed for 2027 to 2031; the tender is months away and the qualifying evidence is assembled now.

BuzzBaboon Signal Fact

Fusion21 published a planning notice for the renewal of its Construction and Refurbishment Framework for 2027 to 2031, with an estimated value of GBP 750 million. The notice says the framework will cover refurbishment and construction works for participating contracting authorities across the United Kingdom under the Procurement Act 2023, including refurbishment, regeneration, stock improvement, fit-out, change of use, modernisation, extensions, conversions, new builds and extra care schemes.

Why this may matter BuzzBaboon Insight

Framework renewals are where places are won and lost for four years. A planning notice under the new Procurement Act suggests the tender itself is months away, which is the period in which contractors assemble their case studies and decide which lots and regions to pursue.

Interpretation, not fact. Produced by a human analyst reading the Find a Tender planning notice. A prompt to investigate, never a conclusion to act on.
What could happen next
  1. Planning notice for the 2027 to 2031 framework
  2. Tender notice with lots and evaluation criteria
  3. Contractors bid by lot and region
  4. Framework live from 2027
  5. Members call off refurbishment and new-build work through 2031
Further down the chain
  • Incumbent contractors defend their lots; new entrants target regions where incumbents are thin.
  • Sub-contractor and supplier relationships are renewed around the likely winners.
  • Social landlords time stock improvement programmes to the new framework.
What I would watch
