Summary of the contracting process

Warwickshire County Council has completed a procurement process for the "Provision of Fire Risk Assessments," focusing on fire-prevention services. The procurement category was classified under services with a CPV code of 75251110. This process was part of an open procedure intended to support legal obligations by conducting fire risk assessments for operational buildings every three years in Warwickshire. The contract has been awarded to Orbis Environmental Ltd, and the total contract value is estimated at £500,000, potentially increasing to £500,000 over its lifetime if necessary. The procurement stage reached completion on 13th May 2025, following initial bids that were opened in February 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in fire risk assessments and safety consultancy to engage with regional public sector clients. Companies capable of providing ongoing risk assessments, consultancy, and strategy development could benefit better by offering their services not only to Warwickshire but also extending into surrounding areas such as neighbouring schools and academies. Businesses with expertise in health and safety, service administration, and social value, as well as the ability to deliver cost-effective solutions, will likely find a desirable competitive edge in similar future tenders issued by regional authorities.
