Rahmenvertrag für Sanierung und zugehörige Bauarbeiten

West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service (WYFRS) is considering establishing a multi-supplier framework for the delivery of refurbishment and associated building works across its estate. The proposed framework will include other Fire and Rescue Services within the Yorkshire and Humberside region, promoting regional collaboration. Bidders can apply for one or all FRS’s. WYFRS are acting as lead contracting authority, and FRS’s named on the framework will be:- • West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service. • Humberside Fire and Rescue Service. • South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service. We are aiming to award local contractors on the framework and are encouraging SME’s to tender for the value lots available. As such all bidders must have a registered office within the Yorkshire and Humberside region. The Authority is seeking feedback from the market to help inform the framework structure, procurement strategy and contract award mechanisms. The framework may be used to procure projects including, but not limited to, fire station refurbishments, welfare facility improvements, locker room and shower upgrades, internal remodelling, building alterations, accessibility improvements, roofing works, mechanical and electrical installations, external works, minor extensions and other associated construction activities. Projects are expected to vary in complexity and value and may be delivered within live operational environments. Participation in this engagement exercise will not form part of any future evaluation process and will not provide any advantage or disadvantage in any subsequent procurement. Suppliers interested in participating are invited to email their expression of interest to tenders@westyorksfire.gov.uk by 02/11/2026, and if possible, complete the following Preliminary Market Engagement Questionnaire: Q1.
