Notice Title

Single Building Assessment(s) for Fire Safety in Scotland

Notice Description

The Scottish Government have made a commitment from March 2021 to provide support where risks, due to unsafe cladding systems on external walls have been identified. The Single Building Assessment (SBA) programme has been introduced to carry out fully funded safety assessments to determine private residential multi-occupancy buildings with a fire safety risk. The assessment will produce a report that will identify the extent of risk and recommendations for any repairs needed to make buildings safer.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Scottish Government are looking to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System to host a bank of appropriately qualified suppliers to provide Single Building Assessments (SBAs) on private residential multi-occupancy buildings. These assessments will require on-site surveying and intrusive material sampling (where required) to provide and assess risk due to unsafe cladding systems on external walls. The single building assessment also requires a holistic fire safety risk assessment to be carried out on the entire building. As an output a report will be produced that assesses the level of risk posed (if any identified) and will provide suggested recommendations for any remediation works needed to make the building safer and in line with current building standards in Scotland. .
