Environtec to deliver building safety and compliance services for NHS

Environtec is delighted to announce that we’ve been named as a supplier on the NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) Building Safety and Fire Compliance Framework Agreement. 

Over the next 4 years, we’ll be delivering safety and compliance services across NHS buildings and the wider public sector in England, to ensure spaces are kept safe for all those who work within them. 

Environtec will be responsible for asbestos management in London and the South East (Lot 2.1), and throughout the rest of the UK (Lot 2.2). 

We’ll also be providing legionella and water treatment services in London and the South East (Lot 4.1), and throughout the rest of the UK (Lot 4.2). 

Commenting on what the framework agreement will achieve, Senior Category Manager at NHS SBS, Brendan Griffin-Ryan said: 

“Our new Building Safety and Fire Compliance Framework Agreement provides the NHS and wider public sector with a comprehensive range of services, including fire safety, asbestos management and removal, lifts maintenance and installation, water treatment, PAT testing, authorising engineers, and pneumatic tube systems.” 

“Developed with a regional structure, it facilitates both national and SME suppliers, offering a blend of solutions to our customers.” 

  “The framework agreement aligns with key health and safety regulations, ensuring compliance in critical areas such as fire safety, water treatment, and asbestos management. This alignment is crucial for maintaining the safety and integrity of NHS buildings, protecting patients, staff, and visitors.” 

 With the recent budget announcement allocating £1 billion to the NHS to address critical repairs, this framework agreement provides a compliant procurement route for essential safety services.”
