Summary of the contracting process

Surrey Heath Borough Council procured remedial fire-safety works at Main Square Car Park in Camberley, following the findings of a fire risk assessment undertaken in November 2025. The requirement covers fire-prevention installation works, including fire doors and fireproofing. It is a works contract delivered at the car park in Camberley. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement is specific to improving fire safety at this facility, rather than general building maintenance or an ongoing facilities-management service. Businesses with experience in commercial fire-protection installations, fire-door works and fireproofing would find the scope most relevant, particularly those able to carry out remedial works arising from a formal fire risk assessment.

The procurement has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Abca Systems Ltd was selected, and the contract was signed on 2 September 2026. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 6 November 2026. Its value is £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. The tender closed on 15 May 2026, with enquiries accepted until 1 May 2026 at 17:00. Evaluation gave price a 60% weighting and a written submission 40%. The tender and lot were recorded as complete, while the award and contract are active. The successful supplier is an SME. The requirement was handled as a single lot.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for remedial fire-safety works in a council-owned car park, combining fire-prevention installation, fire doors and fireproofing. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical capability across these areas, with the capacity to investigate and rectify defects identified by a fire risk assessment. The evaluation approach shows that competitive pricing matters, but that the buyer also assesses how suppliers present their proposed approach in writing. Relevant businesses should therefore be able to explain their methodology clearly, demonstrate competent delivery of fire-safety remedial works and coordinate activity in an operational public car-park environment. Specialist fire-protection contractors and SMEs with comparable commercial or public-sector experience are the closest fit.
