Summary of the contracting process

The procurement covers building control inspection services for DEFRA’s Facilities Management Hub, under the requirement titled “Building Control Inspector for Facilities Management Hub – PR 26”. The work is a service contract intended to provide building control inspection support. It is a call-off from DEFRA’s Building Control Inspector framework, linking the requirement to an established specialist supply arrangement. Delivery covers the United Kingdom and the specified overseas areas, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man and the rest of the world. The named delivery location also includes the KT15 3NB postal area. DEFRA is the buying organisation, based at 2 Marsham Street, London.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The response deadline was 3 August 2026 at noon, and the award decision was dated 10 August 2026. Salus (Building Control & Fire Safety Consultants) Ltd was awarded the contract for £15,200 including the stated contract value, with a minimum estimated value of £6,500. The contract period runs from 31 August 2026 to 31 August 2027. DEFRA identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The requirement is classified as industrial inspection services, with building control inspection as the specific service. The award is active and the tender status is complete.

This award demonstrates demand from DEFRA for specialist building control inspection support within facilities management, procured through a framework call-off rather than a standalone open competition. A credible competitor would need building control inspection capability, experience of advising or inspecting facilities management assets, and the organisational capacity to support work across the United Kingdom and potentially wider overseas locations. The successful supplier, Salus (Building Control & Fire Safety Consultants) Ltd, is recorded as an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist consultancy. Firms already qualified on DEFRA’s Building Control Inspector framework, or able to meet equivalent framework entry and service standards, are the most directly comparable potential suppliers.
