Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Oakley School - Fire door remedials and replacement works to Phase Orange" was handled by Kent County Council, located in Maidstone, England. This process falls under the industry category of "Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus)" and is situated in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was a limited, competitive quotation, which is below the threshold for larger tenders. The tender stage is marked as complete, with the contract being awarded to London Fire Solutions Limited. The contract period is scheduled from 17 February 2025 to 8 September 2025, with the award notification published on 27 November 2024. The total contract value is £48,398.03 GBP.

This procurement provides a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and materials, particularly those experienced in fire door installations and repairs, to expand their market presence in the South East region. While London Fire Solutions Limited, a large-scale supplier, was successful in this bid, similar contracts may offer growth opportunities for both large enterprises and SMEs in the construction industry. Suppliers with the capacity to deliver high-quality construction solutions efficiently and within budget constraints would be well-suited to engage in such competitive quotation processes by Kent County Council. The emphasis on competitiveness and the specific focus on construction materials highlight the potential for businesses to showcase expertise and secure future government contracts in this sector.
