BAM FM awarded place on £750 million Fusion21 Decarbonisation Framework

Hemel Hempstead, 31 January 2022 - Following a competitive tender process, public sector procurement body Fusion21 has appointed BAM Facilities Management (BAM FM) to its £750 million Decarbonisation Framework.

The four-year framework is structured across two lots and has been developed to deliver energy efficiency projects to support public sector organisations including housing associations, local authorities, NHS trusts, blue light organisations and education providers.

BAM FM has been appointed to Lot 2: Decarbonisation of Public & Education Buildings (worth up to £250 million). The company’s specialist energy team, BAM Energy, will offer solutions for energy efficiency and renewable energy measures to non-domestic public buildings in the UK, including fabric, building management systems and controls, and improvement works. All appointed suppliers must be committed to working to the PAS2035:2019 standard and Trustmark accredited.

Louise Williamson, BAM FM‘s managing director, said: ‘Our UK-wide geographical coverage, along with our extensive public sector experience and energy efficiency and renewable energy expertise, will provide a strong platform for us to partner effectively with Fusion21 members. This framework will play an important role in improving energy performance in the public sector and our role is to deliver tailored energy services packages that support members’ decarbonisation plans, as well as supporting the delivery of social value aligned to their organisational priorities.’
