Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Colchester Borough Council is seeking contractors to install and remediate fire compartmentation measures across its housing stock. The work addresses defects identified through fire risk assessments, Housing Health and Safety Rating System inspections and annual fire risk assessment reviews. The requirement includes fire-door work and installation of fire-protection equipment. Delivery is in the East of England. This is a building fire-safety works contract for suppliers able to carry out remedial work within occupied or other housing properties, as required by the council’s housing programme.

The council invited offers through an open procedure. The tender deadline was 25 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 11 January 2027 to 10 January 2030. The estimated contract value is £100,000 to £500,000. The procurement is presented as one requirement, with no separate lots described. The published procurement information does not state the evaluation criteria or bidder eligibility requirements. The tender reached the invitation-to-bid stage; no cancellation or withdrawal is reported.

This opportunity is suited to contractors specialising in fire compartmentation and building fire safety, particularly firms with practical experience installing and remediating fire doors and other fire-protection measures in housing. Suppliers should be capable of identifying and rectifying defects arising from inspections and reviews, and of delivering a sustained programme of work across a housing stock over several years. The procurement is marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so businesses should consider whether they have the scale and delivery capacity to meet the council’s requirement. The stated work aligns with fire-safety installation and remediation rather than general housing maintenance.
