Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Karbon Homes focuses on delivering Compartmentation Surveys & Works and General Fire Safety Rectification, with the contract awarded under an open procedure framework. The buying organisation, Karbon Homes, based in Newcastle, aims to engage competent contractors for this comprehensive framework. The industry categorisation comprises fire-prevention installation works, building surveying services, and fire-prevention services, with operations occurring throughout the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKC (North East) and UKE (Yorkshire and the Humber) regions. The planning stage initiated in May 2025, transitioned through the tender phase concluding by September 2025, and reached the award stage in June 2026, with a contract duration stretching from 2026 to March 2030.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for contractors within fire safety and building surveying sectors to expand their clientele and geographic work area. With a framework agreement accommodating multiple suppliers, businesses have potential growth opportunities by securing contracts within each lot's specific specialisation such as fire alarm and asbestos removal. Particularly, larger scale companies or those capable of acting as principal contractors will benefit given the comprehensive nature of works required, the long-term contract period, and the emphasis on quality and social value. Competitive bids focusing on quality and cost efficiency are essential, and SME and VCSE organisations are particularly suited to benefit from this framework arrangement.
