Framework supplier

by Mark Rowe

The security and facilities management (FM) contractor Mitie has been named as a supplier across all 11 lots on Government Commercial Agency (GCA) RM6378 Facilities Management and Security Services Framework. GCA is the UK’s central commercial and procurement body, seeking to create simpler procurement, typically for central and local government besides others in the public sector.

RM6378 is set to replace both RM6232 (Facilities Management and Workplace Services) and RM6257 (Security Services). Andrew Rawdon, Managing Director, Central Government at Mitie, said: “Our appointment across all lots of the RM6378 framework is a significant achievement and marks an important opportunity for Mitie to strengthen its support to Government and public sector organisations. Through this framework, we look forward to continuing to deliver the facilities management and security services that help keep public services running safely and efficiently.”

The 11 lots are:

  • 1a – Total Facilities Management, £0-2m
  • 1b – Total Facilities Management, £2-15m
  • 1c – Total Facilities Management, £15m+
  • 2a – Hard Facilities Management, £0-2m
  • 2b – Hard Facilities Management, £2m+
  • 3a – Soft Facilities Management, £0-2m
  • 3b – Soft Facilities Management, £2m+
  • 4a – Total Security Services
  • 4b – Security Officer Services
  • 4c – Physical and Electronic Security Systems and Services
  • 4d – Security Advisory and Assessment Services

About the framework

The framework runs from 19 August 2026 to 18 August 2034 and allows call-off contracts to be awarded through several routes, including award without competition and single, two-stage and multi-stage competitive selection processes.

Cumbria extension

Meanwhile Mitie recently won a three-year integrated facilities management (IFM) contract extension with the Cumbria Consortium, including Sellafield Ltd, the nuclear power station being decommissioned. Over 600 people will continue delivering engineering, maintenance, cleaning, waste management, grounds maintenance and catering services across critical infrastructure sites in Cumbria and Warrington.
