Our National framework partnerships
CR Smith is proud to be an approved supplier on three of Scotland’s leading public sector procurement frameworks.
These partnerships reflect our commitment to quality, compliance, and delivering energy-efficient window and door solutions that support the country’s net-zero ambitions.
Why frameworks matter.
- Pre-approved quality: Our rigorous vetting across three frameworks means you can appoint us directly or via mini-competition, skipping a full open tender process.
- Efficient procurement: Direct award or mini-competition routes mean faster mobilisation. Critical when EPC improvement deadlines are tight.
- Net-zero alignment: Our A-rated products contribute directly to Scotland’s 2032 EPC-B requirement for social housing.
- Community impact: We deliver local employment and community benefits through our projects.
How to appoint CR Smith through a framework
Being on all three major Scottish frameworks means your procurement team can appoint CR Smith quickly and compliantly, without running a full tender process. Here’s how it typically works:
Direct award or mini-competition
Depending on the value of your programme, you can either appoint us directly under the framework’s direct award threshold, or run a mini-competition among approved suppliers. We can advise on which route is most appropriate for your project.
