Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Ladywood House - Fire Remediation Works has been completed by Portsmouth City Council. This tender falls under the category of fire-prevention installation works and is located in Southsea, PO5 4JN. The procurement was conducted using a two-stage procedure, beginning with a Pre-Construction Services Agreement (PCSA) and culminating in a Design and Build Contract. Portsmouth City Council followed a restricted procedure for this selective procurement method. Key dates included the issuance of tender documentation on 21 July 2025, with the bid submission deadline on 29 August 2025. Ultimately, the contract was awarded to Harmony Fire Ltd, with an estimated project completion by 20 October 2028.

This tender for fire remediation works presents a significant opportunity for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in fire-prevention and building safety. Companies with expertise in installation services of fire protection equipment and experience managing complex, large-scale construction projects would find this contract particularly suitable. Given the documented long duration of the project and the collaboration required during the design and construction phases, businesses equipped with strong project management and technical skills are well-positioned to successfully compete in such tenders. Additionally, firms familiar with the regulatory landscape, particularly in building safety, will be advantageous in supporting the safety and compliance aspects integral to this project.
