Acivico FM Appointed to Northern Housing Consortium Active Fire Framework
19 February 2026
Acivico FM has been successfully appointed to the Northern Housing Consortium (NHC) Active Fire Framework, to provide fire safety consultancy services to local authorities, combined authorities, ALMOs and associations that provide social housing for tenants in the North.
The Northern Housing Consortium is a member‑led organisation that supports housing providers across the North and beyond, offering frameworks that try to simplify procurement while maintaining high standards.
Their framework provides NHC members with access to approved, competent suppliers to help them meet their fire safety responsibilities and manage risk across a wide range of building types.
Through the framework, Acivico FM will be able to support housing providers with fire risk assessments, inspections and related advisory services, aimed at helping organisations understand their obligations and take proportionate, well‑informed action.
Acivico FM works with a number of public sector and housing clients, including healthcare, education, housing and infrastructure, delivering fire safety services. Its approach is to prioritise clear communication, proportionate recommendations and an understanding of the operational realities faced by housing providers and other building operators. Acivico aims to bring a clear understanding of the different risks, responsibilities and environments each sector faces.
Commenting on the appointment, Gareth Longley, Business Development Consultant at Acivico, said: “Being appointed to the Northern Housing Consortium Active Fire Framework is an important step for Acivico FM. It allows us to support more housing providers through a trusted and compliant procurement route, offering clear, practical fire safety advice that helps organisations manage risk and meet their responsibilities with confidence.”
