RM4 will primarily serve public sector organisations across Scotland through SPA. In addition, LHC PG is currently establishing the Northern Ireland Procurement Alliance (NIPA), which will operate in Northern Ireland. As a result, the RM4 framework will also be accessible to contracting authorities and suppliers in this region. RM4 is a public sector focused framework designed to provide organisations with a compliant, flexible and efficient route to market for the delivery of refurbishment, improvement and modernisation works across residential and non-residential buildings. The framework builds upon the success of the current Refurbishment and Modernisation Framework (RM3) and has been expanded following structured market engagement with both suppliers and public sector organisations. Feedback gathered during these engagement activities has informed and refined the proposed workstreams, lot structure and value banding to ensure continued alignment with current and anticipated market capacity and requirements.

The framework will be structured to encourage participation from suppliers of varying sizes. It will offer flexibility to meet the needs and growth aspirations of individual suppliers through the selection of appropriate workstreams, value bands and geographical locations. The framework aims to appoint experienced suppliers that are capable of delivering high-quality, compliant refurbishment solutions, while supporting sustainable supply chains, social value outcomes, community benefit delivery and fair work practices.
