Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by Milton Keynes City Council is for the replacement of fire doors in block properties, covering dwelling entrances, internal communal areas, service cupboards, and loft hatches. The project is categorised under the goods industry, specifically focusing on fire doors (CPV code: 44221220) and their installation (CPV code: 45421131). The council utilised an open procedure to invite bids, with the procurement phase moved to the award stage as of 8 January 2026. Although the tender submission deadline was 13 May 2025, the contract was awarded on 3 November 2025 to Bell Group Ltd. The contract runs from 22 August 2025 to 21 August 2027, with work taking place primarily in Milton Keynes and potentially across the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and other parts of the United Kingdom.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in door manufacturing and installation to expand their operations within the public sector. Companies like Bell Group Ltd that excel in large-scale installations and have experience working with municipal councils are well-suited for such contracts. While this particular award does not specify a preference for SMEs or VCSEs, businesses capable of meeting the stringent requirements of public sector contracts stand to benefit. The engagement under this contract, valued at £13.9 million, signifies significant growth potential and visibility within the government procurement landscape.
