Complaints Policy

Complaints Policy

This policy outlines our approach to handling complaints, ensuring that they are dealt with fairly, and effectively, and maintaining the trust and confidence of our clients, suppliers, and partners.

At Procure Partnerships Framework, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional procurement and delivery services within the construction industry. We understand, however, that there may be occasions when our services may not meet the high standards we strive to achieve. In these instances, we are committed to addressing and resolving any complaints promptly and efficiently.

Purpose of the Policy

This policy outlines our approach to handling complaints, ensuring that they are dealt with fairly, and effectively, and maintaining the trust and confidence of our clients, suppliers, and partners. We see complaints as an opportunity to learn and improve our services, as well as a chance to put things right for the person or organisation that has raised the complaint.

How to Make a Complaint

Complaints can be made in various ways, including by email, telephone, or in writing. We aim to make this process as accessible as possible to ensure that all complaints are heard and addressed appropriately. Full contact details for making a complaint can be found on our website.

Receiving and Acknowledging Complaints

Upon receiving a complaint, we will acknowledge it promptly, typically within a few working days. This acknowledgement will provide an initial response to the issues raised and outline the next steps, including the timeframe for a full response.

Investigating Complaints

All complaints will be investigated thoroughly and impartially by a team or individual with the appropriate knowledge and authority to resolve the issue. We will review all relevant information and, if necessary, may contact you to further understand your concerns and the outcome you are seeking.

Resolving Complaints

Our goal is to resolve complaints to the satisfaction of the complainant, while also identifying opportunities to improve our services. Once the investigation is complete, we will provide you with a detailed response, including an explanation of our findings, any actions we have taken, and any changes we plan to implement as a result of your feedback.

Confidentiality

We treat all complaints confidentially. Information about your complaint will only be shared with those who need to know to investigate and resolve the matter.

Escalation

If you are not satisfied with our response, we will provide information on how to escalate your complaint within our organisation for further review. We aim to resolve all complaints internally; however, we will also inform you of any external bodies you can contact if you are not satisfied with the outcome.

Monitoring and Learning

We monitor all complaints received to identify any trends or systemic issues that may require further action. This policy will be reviewed regularly to ensure it meets our commitment to improving the quality and effectiveness of our services.

Feedback

We welcome feedback on our complaints process to ensure it remains effective and meets the needs of those we serve. If you have suggestions for improvement, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Contact Us

For further information on how to make a complaint or to provide feedback on this policy, please visit our website or contact us directly. Our dedicated team is here to ensure that your experience with Procure Partnerships Framework is positive and meets your professional expectations.

Quicker Procurement
Timeframes

Access to pre-qualified and continuously vetted contractors and consultants allows framework users to reach market within 4–6 weeks (construction) and 2–4 weeks (professional services), which is 2–3 months faster than an open tender. This is one of the fastest compliant routes to market available in the public sector.

Real-Time Performance And Compliance Oversight

A free project management platform is provided to framework users to support performance monitoring, risk management, and dispute resolution. The platform enables real-time oversight of financial status, compliance, KPIs, and supply chain health, producing auditable dashboards to support governance and early risk identification.

Exceptional Social Value And Sustainability Impact

We mandate a minimum of 12% social value add on every project, with our contractor partners achieving an average of 62% social value add. By providing the right tools and expertise, we ensure social value is embedded in every procurement, helping you build better futures for your people, spaces and places.

Financial Due-Dilligence

As part of our financial due diligence checks, we actively monitor supplier payment practices.

Using fair payment as a KPI, we track that suppliers are paying invoices within 30 days, helping to identify potential solvency issues or payment delays early.

 

The Procurement Policy Note 018 (PPN 018) requires suppliers to pay 95% of invoices within 60 days (90% with an action plan), our approach safeguards programme continuity and ensures invoices are paid within 30 days, a month ahead of the national policy expectations.

Regular Auditing

At Procure Partnerships Framework, performance management is embedded at both project and framework level, with pre-established KPIs spanning Cost, Time, Health & Safety, Sustainability, Fair Payment, and Client Satisfaction. Contractors report monthly via a secure cloud-based platform, providing real-time data across all live projects. This continuous monitoring allows us to identify emerging risks early, intervene proactively, and ensure that corrective action is applied consistently across the portfolio.

Social Value is Contractual

We mandate a minimum of 12% social value add on every project, with our contractor partners achieving an average of 62% social value add. Contractors are permitted to report on social value monthly, with all evidence being verified by a Social Value Advisor. Quarterly audits are also undertaken to push social value performance and celebrate successes. Find out more about our social value offering.

Strict Performance Standards

The framework enforces rigorous performance standards, with all KPIs benchmarked against an 80% threshold. Metrics like cost variance, programme adherence, and accident-free weeks provide quantitative insight, while client satisfaction surveys capture qualitative feedback. In addition, we mandate that pre-construction remains transparent and open book, ensuring contractors provide a minimum of 3 quotes on all packages.

Accountability

Social value is not an afterthought, but a contractual requirement across every framework project. We mandate a minimum of 12% social value add (SVA) on all projects, though our contractor partners consistently exceed this, delivering an average of 62% SVA, equating to £144.7 million in the last year alone.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
