Notice Information

Notice Title

TD2392 - Fire Risk Assessment Services

Notice Description

Derby City Council (the Council) is undertaking this procurement to establish a contract for fire risk assessment services. The procurement process adopted by the Council is based on the 'Open' tendering procedure as detailed in the Procurement Act 2023 (the "Act") and the Procurement Regulations 2024 (the "Regulations".) The initial contract period is two (2) years; the contract is estimated to commence on 1st October 2026 and expire on 30th September 2028. There will be an option to extend the contract for three (3) years in annual increments, subject to satisfactory performance and business needs. Maximum contract period is five (5) years. Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is underway in several areas across the country and may result in changes to council structures, service delivery and responsibilities, and geographical coverage during the life of the contract. For this contract it is anticipated that the effects of LGR may lead to an increased service demand or the need to extend provision to new areas or client groups. Bidders should note that the total estimated contract value of PS768,000, comprises of two components: i) The core contract value, estimated at PS192,000, based on known current service requirements ii) An additional estimated value of PS576,000 to reflect potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR. These figures are estimations and due to only being in the early stages of the process the Authority cannot give any commitment on these figures but would like to build scope into the Contract should the need arise.
