Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Lambeth has concluded the procurement process for the Turney School Fire Safety Works, focusing on critical improvements like fire door replacements, fire stopping, and fire compartmentation. This procurement falls under the category of works and employs an open procurement method, allowing for broad competition under specific thresholds. The final stage of the process was marked by an award made on 15 May 2026, to Bell Decorating Group, valued at £418,892.77 exclusive of VAT. The contract period is set from 1 July 2026 to 31 January 2027 in London, United Kingdom. The project was handled under a sub-central government authority, ensuring alignment with legal obligations and requirements set by the UK Parliament under the 2023 legislation.

This procurement offers significant business opportunities, particularly for SMEs, given the structured criteria which focused both on pricing and qualitative factors such as programme management, health and safety, and work within a live school environment. The characteristics of the procurement process, which allowed for below-threshold open competition, suggest an emphasis on demonstrated capabilities and price competitiveness. This tender is particularly suitable for businesses involved in fire-prevention installations, fireproofing, and related safety works, offering them an avenue for growth through engagement with public sector projects. SMEs and other businesses experienced in working with public authorities stand to gain from participating in similar procurement processes, leveraging their specialisation and competitive edge in the marketplace.
