The list includes names such as: Mace, Mitie, Q3 Services, Pareto FM and EMCOR.

Framework benefits include the ability to add in additional services such as catering or grounds maintenance, and the option to focus on and target local suppliers where appropriate.
Members can also manage services themselves or if they don’t have the expertise in-house they can appoint a Managing Agent or Principal Contractor
Peter Francis, Director of Operations at Fusion21 said: “The new framework will provide a range of FM solutions to Fusion21 members, whilst giving them access to qualified and experienced staff with particular experience of facilities management.
“A real benefit to our members and their communities is the social value delivery that is aligned to organisational priorities and can be monitored and reported against for all call-offs.”
