Summary of the contracting process

Freebridge Community Housing Limited has recently awarded a contract for "Passive Fire Stopping Works," focusing on responsive and planned works such as compartmentations, fire doors, fire stopping, and certified fire remedial works. The procurement process was handled as an open competition below the threshold, overseen by Freebridge Community Housing—a sub-central government public authority based in King's Lynn, United Kingdom. The contract, now in the award stage, was signed on 1st April 2026 with a duration extending up to 1st February 2029, with potential for a one-year extension. Key components of this project fall under the industry categories of fire-prevention installation works and fireproofing work, with delivery confined to the UKH16 region. The gross contract value amounts to £4,000,000.

This contract offers substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for companies proficient in fire safety services and installations. Large-scale businesses with expertise in fire prevention solutions, such as manufacturing and installing fire doors and executing fireproofing work, are well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity. The tender, structured to accommodate open competition, encourages participation from capable entities, including SMEs and VCSEs, fostering an environment conducive to responsible procurement and quality control.
