Understanding Demolition Framework

The Demolition Framework refers to a structured approach for managing demolition project types. It outlines the processes, procedures, and standards to be followed during the structure demolition, whether they are buildings, infrastructure, or other types of edifices.

With Procure Partnerships Framework, our assistance helps appoint public service contractors and suppliers for your demolition projects.

Our comprehensive approach ensures that your demolition endeavours for your construction projects are conducted with precision, adhering to regulatory standards, and leveraging the expertise of trusted professionals.

From initial planning to project execution, we provide tailored solutions to meet the specific requirements of your demolition initiatives, promoting efficiency, safety, and sustainability every step of the way.

The framework encompasses various aspects of demolition, including planning, safety measures, environmental considerations, waste management, and project management.

Specific demolition projects can be efficiently and effectively managed, ensuring compliance with regulations, quality standards, and sustainability objectives.

  1. Key Objectives of the Demolition Framework

    The primary objectives are to ensure the safe, efficient, and sustainable removal of structures while optimising resource utilisation and minimising environmental impact.

  2. Safety

    Ensuring the safety of workers, occupants of adjacent buildings, and the general public throughout the demolition tender process is the utmost priority within this framework.

  3. Efficiency

    Executing demolition projects in a timely and cost-effective manner, minimising disruptions and optimising resource utilisation.

  4. Sustainability

    Promoting sustainable practices by responsibly managing waste, maximising recycling, minimising environmental impact and tracking social value.

  5. Quality

    Delivering high-quality demolition services that meet or exceed industry standards and client expectations.

  6. Collaboration

    Allowing collaboration between clients, contractors, and other stakeholders to achieve successful project outcomes.

Benefits of the Demolition Framework

Procure Partnerships Framework offer numerous benefits for clients and stakeholders, including:

  • Expertise and Experience – Access to a network of experienced demolition contractors with a proven track record of delivering successful projects across various sectors.
  • Cost Savings – Contractors generally operate with a lower overhead and profit percentages on framework projects compared to open market projects.
    Contractors working under framework agreements have, when joining the framework, submitted an overhead and profit percentage typically 2% lower than they offer clients on the open market because the framework guarantees a reliable and stable stream of project opportunities for the contractor to tender.Another reason that contractors are willing to offer the lower rate beyond the ongoing stream of projects is that when operating under a framework agreement contractors compete against their near peers. On the open market, they are potentially facing a wider pool of contractors of differing sizes. This means they could be up against a much smaller contractor who will naturally be cheaper due to lower overheads.

    On a framework, they are matched against their close rivals. This leads to fairer competition. The reduced number of contractors within a framework lot also increases the probability of winning.

  • Compliance and Regulatory Assurance – Ensuring compliance with relevant health and safety regulations, The Social Value Act 2012, environmental standards, the Government net-zero targets, and planning requirements to mitigate legal, financial and reputational risks.
  • Risk Management – Identifying and mitigating the potential risks associated with demolition activities, such as structural instability, hazardous materials, and environmental contamination.
  • Fast Delivery – Delivering demolition projects on time and within budget, minimising disruptions and delays to redevelop existing estate stock. Depending on the procurement route you choose, you can go from project initiation to award in a matter of days.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Enabling collaboration and communication between clients, contractors, regulatory agencies, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment and project success.
