Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea appointed a contractor for fire safety remedial works to its properties in London. The work covers remedials identified by Fire Risk Assessment reports and fire door inspections, with the purpose of bringing properties into line with relevant fire safety regulations and ensuring fire safety measures comply with current legislation, codes of practice and guidance. This is building fire-prevention and remedial works, including work to fire doors. The requirement is focused on addressing defects or issues found through assessments and inspections, rather than a general fire safety service. The borough is the buyer and the work is delivered in London.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to BELL GROUP LIMITED. The award was made on 14 October 2026, following a restricted procedure. The contract value is £750,000. The contract period runs from 15 October 2026 to 13 October 2029. The tender submission deadline was 14 October 2026. This was a single works requirement, with no separate lots described. The borough indicated that the opportunity was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The stated basis for the work is the findings of Fire Risk Assessment reports and fire door inspections, and the requirement is to achieve compliance with relevant fire safety legislation, codes of practice and guidance.

This award shows demand from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea for building fire-safety remedials, particularly work arising from Fire Risk Assessments and fire door inspections. A credible competitor when this requirement returns would need to deliver both general fire remedial works and fire door remedials, and to complete work to the relevant fire safety legislation, codes of practice and guidance. The borough marked this procurement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so the successful competition points to a requirement geared towards suppliers able to undertake a substantial works contract. The award provides a clear indication of the buyer’s requirement and the type of contractor selected.
