Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "CBC-1916-Q-SM Fire Risk Assessment Programme" has reached the award stage. Central Bedfordshire Council, located in Shefford, United Kingdom, is the buying organisation. This contract falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on risk or hazard assessment separate from construction. The procurement method was categorised as "Other," and the award was finalised on 23rd June 2026, following the tender period that ended on 22nd May 2026. The contract extends from 15th June 2026 to 14th June 2028. The successful supplier, Ashby Fire Safety Services Ltd, will be tasked with executing this contract.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in risk and hazard assessment in the UK and potentially in international markets such as the British Oversea Territories and Europe. Although suitability criteria do not favour small or voluntary community sector enterprises, mid-sized to large businesses in the specific field of fire and risk safety can leverage this contract to expand their portfolio. By collaborating with a well-established council like Central Bedfordshire, winning bidders can enhance their reputation and gain insights that might facilitate entry into broader public sector projects. Businesses adept in navigating electronic tender systems, given that submissions were required via the In-tend system, would be well-suited to engage with such procurement opportunities.
