Parity Projects Secures a Place on CHIC’s Healthy Homes Framework

Parity Projects is delighted to announce that it has been successfully appointed to CHIC’s Healthy Homes Framework under Lots 1 and 3. This achievement reflects our commitment to delivering high-quality decarbonisation and building safety services and solutions in collaboration with CHIC.

About Chic’s Healthy Homes Framework: 

The Healthy Homes Framework is an integral part of CHIC’s commitment to providing compliant procurement solutions and commercial support to its members.  This comprehensive four-year framework encompasses a diverse range of solutions designed to enhance residential properties and improve tenants’ lives.  

CHIC’s members, including more than 200 housing associations and local authority affordable housing landlords, are all now working through their own solutions to achieve net zero targets. So, following consultation, CHIC has established this new framework to enable its members to engage all the support needed to survey, plan and deliver retrofit and building works and services. 

Compliant with PAS 2030 and 2035 and Building Safety Bill standards, it serves as a unified solution for landlords to realise their net-zero emissions goals. By integrating goods, works and services, it streamlines the process of surveying, design, coordination, assessment and implementation, making sustainability and safety more attainable.
 

Scope of Services within the CHIC Framework: 

  • Framework Title: Healthy Homes  
  • Framework Duration: 11th April 2024 to 10th April 2028

The framework is divided into three distinct lots to ensure the right suppliers can deliver the works:

  • Lot 1 – Consultancy Services: This category is tailored for firms specialising in consultancy and design services. It invites expertise in strategising, assessing, planning, and advising on energy efficiency and safety enhancements.
  • Lot 2 – Works and Services: Designed for suppliers offering tangible services, this lot encompasses the execution of retrofitting measures, property safety refurbishments and the implementation of various solutions specified within the framework.
  • Lot 3 – Digitisation: Focused on innovative digital solutions, it welcomes suppliers skilled at providing digital tools and platforms essential for measuring, monitoring and managing the effectiveness of the implemented solutions.
