Published description of the framework
Efficiency East Midlands Limited (EEM) is conducting an open tendering procedure in accordance with sections 19 to 24 of the Procurement Act 2023 to establish a Fire Safety, Security & Entry and Access Systems Framework to replace our existing EEM0037 Framework (expiring 29th August 2026) and EEM0067 Framework (expiring 23rd October 2026) into a single, consolidated Framework.
Selection Processes via Lot 1 of the Framework should be for installation and maintenance of fire and intruder alarm and detection systems and fire protection equipment as described above. However, should a member require a single contract and contractor to carry out aspects of works covered by Lot 1 and 2 of this framework, they will be entitled to award a contract via lot 1 providing contractors on this lot want to participate in the opportunity and can competently carry out the work or will ensure they use a suitable subcontractor or third party to certify the work where required to do so.
Selection Processes via Lot 2 of the Framework should be for installation and maintenance of door entry, access control, intruder, auto doors, barriers and CCTV systems. However, should a member require a single contract and contractor to carry out aspects of works covered by Lot 1 and 2 of this framework, they will be entitled to award a contract via lot 2 providing contractors on this lot want to participate in the opportunity and can competently carry out the work or will ensure they use a suitable subcontractor or third party to certify the work where required to do so.
Where a single contract and contractor is required, it will be either a contractor who sits on both lots or one who sits on this lot but can fulfil the requirements through the use of a suitable subcontractor or third party to certify the work where required to do so. It will be the members' choice as to the route they pick.
The Framework agreement will be for a period of 48 months, running from Monday 9th November 2026 to Friday 8th November 2030. There will be a two year break clause for any NHS Authorities using the framework. The two year break clause will be reviewed on 9th November 2028.
A maximum of 10 Contractors may be appointed onto each of the geographical lots of the Framework, ensuring that all our member's requirements are covered taking into consideration the range of locations our members are located in.
EEM Members and Users can award contracts with suppliers on the framework using any
of the following procedures:
- Award Without Competition
- Competitive Selection Process (Mini Competition)
The call-off contract to be awarded pursuant to the Framework Agreements may be entered into at any time during the term of the Framework Agreement and may continue for a duration of up to five years beyond expiry of the four-year term of the Framework
Agreements.
Please refer to the procurement documentation for further information on how the Framework will operate.

Published sub-criteria (3)
- Presentation: 45%
- Price Schedule: 40%
- Social Value and Sustainability Assessment: 15%
Published award criteria (3)
- Presentation: As part of the tender assessment for this Framework, EEM will be inviting bidders to attend a presentation session. The presentation session will include presenting on a scenario and additional questions. All off the presentation questions and evaluation criteria has been disclosed to bidders within the Part D Tender Assessment document .
- Price Schedule: As part of the tender evaluation process, 40% of the overall assessment for each lot will be based on pricing. This will be determined through the completion of Part C - Pricing Schedule. Each Lot has its own pricing document.
- Social Value and Sustainability Assessment: As part of the tender assessment for all three lots of this Framework, 15% has been allocated to Social Value and Sustainability and bidders will need to pass the Pass/Fail questions and answer the weighted questions in this section.
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “EEM0067 - Fire Safety, Security & Entry and Access Systems Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
