Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia appointed a supplier to inspect fire doors in its campus accommodation buildings in Norwich. The requirement is a specialist building-inspection service focused on checking fire doors, supporting fire safety in student accommodation. It was procured as a call-off from the university’s existing fire-safety professional services framework. The work is located on the university campus; the supplier is responsible for carrying out the inspections there.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Global HSE Solutions Limited. The award date was 10 April 2026. The awarded contract value is £190,488.70. The contract period runs from 23 October 2026 to 1 March 2027. The university used a selective procedure, making a call-off from its fire-safety professional services framework. The tender deadline was 10 April 2026 at 12:00. The published details identify one requirement for accommodation fire door inspections; they do not state separate lots or evaluation criteria. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable to provide the service.

For suppliers considering this buyer’s future fire-door inspection work, the award demonstrates demand for a focused service covering accommodation buildings across a university campus. A credible competitor would need demonstrable competence in fire-door inspection and the ability to deliver the required checks across occupied or operational accommodation settings. The route used here was a call-off from the university’s fire-safety professional services framework, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be positioned to participate in that framework route. The selected supplier was a small business, showing that the requirement was delivered by an SME rather than being limited to a large contractor. The work is a defined specialist inspection service, making relevant fire-safety inspection experience and the capacity to complete a campus accommodation programme important.
