Notice Title

GB-London: Advise on complex fire safety reports

Notice Description

We are looking for a selection of qualified fire experts to advise the purchaser on any report or document Regarding the fire safety features in a block of flats, in particular pointing out any features that are important to reduce risk, and also that could make a block unsafe. Failure to meet regulations should be noted, but the scale of hazard is primary. It is not uncommon for reports from landlords' advisors to quote building regs as a justification for including a feature that isn't very safe, and elsewhere in a document say they are ignoring regulations and justify a feature by adhering to a functional requirement - the common theme is usually that they want the cheaper option, which is often less safe. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
