Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ashford Borough Council procured planned fire door replacement and associated works across the South East of England. The requirement is a works contract focused on replacing fire doors, with related building and installation activities included within the scope. It was arranged as a call-off from the LHC framework, so the relevant supply market is contractors able to deliver fire door replacement through framework arrangements and manage associated works for a local authority. The procurement is classified under CPV 44221220 for fire doors. The named buying organisation is Ashford Borough Council, based in Ashford, England. The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that delivery is not limited to large national contractors.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 5 May 2026 at 10:00. Ashford Borough Council awarded the contract to Harmony Fire Ltd on 22 July 2026. The awarded value is £7,500,000 including the published currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 28 July 2026 to 28 July 2029. The award is active and the tender status is complete. The procurement concerns one overall requirement rather than separately described lots. The published outcome identifies Harmony Fire Ltd as the selected supplier; the available award information does not set out a separate scoring breakdown or weighting for the evaluation criteria.

This award demonstrates established local-authority demand for planned fire door replacement and associated works at substantial scale in the South East. A credible future competitor would need practical expertise in surveying, supplying and installing compliant fire doors, together with the ability to coordinate associated building works and maintain quality across a sizeable programme. Experience of working for councils or other social landlords would help demonstrate an understanding of occupied buildings, resident safety, access arrangements, reporting and public-sector contract management. Suppliers should also be able to operate through an appropriate framework call-off route and show sufficient management, labour, supply-chain and delivery capacity. The requirement is explicitly suitable for SMEs, so a well-organised specialist contractor or capable regional business could be commercially relevant.
