Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council commissioned fire safety consultancy services for Gilton House: preparation of a fire strategy, fire strategy drawings and a Fire and Emergency File. The requirement centres on documenting the building’s fire safety approach and associated emergency information. The stated delivery location is England; no more specific site location is identified. This is a building-focused professional services requirement, rather than a purchase of construction materials or physical fire-fighting equipment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Constellia Public Limited. The award date was 7 September 2026, and the contract runs from 8 September 2026 to 7 January 2027. The awarded contract value is £17,472.15. The tender deadline was 4 September 2026 at 12:00. The procurement method is described as “Other”, with no further procedure detail. The published information gives no evaluation criteria or separate lots, so the award basis cannot be characterised further. Bristol City Council is the buyer. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates a focused requirement for fire safety consultancy on an individual building: a supplier must be able to produce a fire strategy, technical drawings and a coordinated Fire and Emergency File. For a future requirement of this kind at Gilton House, relevant strengths would include building fire-safety expertise, the ability to translate the strategy into usable drawings and emergency documentation, and capacity to deliver a defined package of professional work. The selected supplier was identified as an SME, and the procurement was considered suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that this scale of work can be within reach of smaller providers. The published requirement does not identify mandatory accreditations or specific experience thresholds.
