Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Nottingham City Council focuses on conducting Housing Fire Risk Assessments with the assigned contract ID CPU7757. Located in Nottingham, the council has completed this procurement under the open procedure, related to the services category in the UKF14 region. The awarded contract, valued at an estimated £735,000 to £882,000, was awarded to Ridge and Partners LLP. The project commenced on 1st June 2026 and is set to conclude on 31st May 2029, contingent on the outcomes of the Type 1 assessments undertaken across 312 social housing sites. This procurement initiative supports regulatory compliance requirements under the Building Safety Act 2022 and focuses on enhancing the safety measures in place within high, mid, and low-rise properties.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth in the building inspection services industry, especially for businesses specialised in fire and explosion protection, fire risk assessments, and technical building inspections. Given the requirement for stringent compliance with fire safety regulations and the ongoing necessity to update and manage digital safety records, this opportunity is well-suited for large-scale consultancy firms possessing robust credentials in fire safety risk assessments. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) equipped with advanced digital systems and a demonstrable record in fire safety engineering will also find potential growth opportunities through subcontracting or collaboration, facilitating a competitive presence in public sector contracts.
