Summary of the contracting process

SEC Procurement Limited, trading as South East Consortium, is overseeing a procurement process titled "Fire Safety Works Framework," which is focused on construction work within the housing and community amenities sector. This framework, intended for fire remedial works, covers locations in London and South East UK and is governed by an open procedure procurement method. The framework agreement spans four years, with contract awards designated for regional contracts through direct selection or mini-competition. Originally tendered in early 2025, the procurement reached the award stage by December 2025, aiming to provide fire safety services with key contracts signed on 10th December 2025.

This tender offers opportunities for growth to businesses specialising in fire safety and construction, particularly those capable of handling installations of passive and active fire protection systems. The framework incorporates a diverse range of contract lots, welcoming bids from manufacturers and contractors alike, with awards based primarily on quality and cost criteria. SMEs and larger enterprises focusing on products such as fire doors, fire-alarm systems, and installation services are well-suited to benefit from participation in this framework. Given the substantial framework value of £300,000,000, involvement presents a significant commercial prospect for companies seeking to expand their operations in the fire safety sector.
