Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust involves the upgrade of fire dampers at Guy’s Hospital in London. This tender is classified under the fire-prevention installation works industry category. It falls within the procurement stage of award, having been directly awarded to Harmony Fire Limited on 2nd March 2026 for the sum of £188,411. The procurement method employed is a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, using the NHS SBS framework for Building Safety and Fire Compliance. The need to expedite capital requirements to meet the financial year-end deadline motivated this direct award.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in fire-prevention systems and building safety compliance, particularly those familiar with NHS framework agreements. Small to medium enterprises, such as Harmony Fire Limited, which was awarded the contract, may find opportunities to expand their services in public sector safety upgrades, enhancing their expertise in actuator upgrades and integration with fire alarm systems. Companies with capabilities in retrofitting and utilising direct fire control mechanisms stand to benefit substantially from similar tenders in the healthcare sector, particularly regional or local authorities.

Notice Title

Fire Damper Panels

Notice Description

The works comprise the upgrade of the existing fire dampers serving the link blocks within <br/>the Tower Wing at Guy's Hospital. The current installation consists of relatively new ActionAir <br/>fusible-link dampers, all of which are in good condition. These dampers will be retained as <br/>part of the permanent asset base, with actuator upgrade kits retrofitted to each unit. This <br/>enhancement will allow the dampers to be controlled directly via the fire alarm system and <br/>to respond to cold smoke conditions, rather than relying solely on heat to trigger closure.
