Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Principal Contractor - DeMontfort House" was initiated by the Platform Housing Group for works in Leicester, specifically at the DeMontfort House high rise block. The contract seeks to comply with the Building Safety Act, encompassing various workstreams over approximately 12 months, with a contract value of £2,688,519.47. This award stage follows an open procedure tender that concluded on 21st March 2025. The contract period extends from 1st May 2025 to 30th October 2026. The industry categories involved include smoke-detection apparatus, ventilation and cladding works, with significant involvement expected in installation of fire-alarm systems and refurbishment work. Platform Housing Group, based in Solihull, oversees this procurement, with Guildmore Limited awarded as the supplier.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, principally for businesses specialising in construction, safety compliance, and refurbishment services. It is an ideal contract for enterprises with expertise in building safety and extensive experience in executing complex, multi-discipline contracts. The project involves specific works like ventilation installation, scaffolding, and fireproofing, all of which require specialist contractors capable of delivering within stringent regulatory frameworks. While the procurement excludes suitability for SMEs and VCSEs, larger-scale enterprises capable of delivering comprehensive solutions are well-suited to compete, particularly those with a background in large-scale residential projects and safety compliance measures. This project promises enhancements to infrastructural safety, thereby offering potential long-term collaboration opportunities with Platform Housing Group for successfully delivering the requirements.
