Summary of the contracting process

Salvation Army Housing Association has procured fire-safety servicing and maintenance for its housing stock, including electrical building systems, fire-fighting equipment and associated electrical installation work. The services are divided geographically: North; London and South East; and South West. The North lot covers the North of England, London and South East covers those areas, and the South West lot covers the South West. The buying organisation is Salvation Army Housing Association; Faithorn Farrell Timms acted as its procurement consultant. The scope is maintenance and servicing rather than a one-off supply, with contracts intended to support continuing fire safety across the association’s homes.

The procurement is complete: all three lots were awarded and contracts were signed on 16 October 2026. The open procedure assessed price (40%), written quality responses (25%) and presented quality responses (35%). Fieldway Compliance Limited won North for £1,575,000; ABCA Systems Limited won London and South East for £1,341,667; and Ventro Ltd won South West for £525,000. Each contract runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029, with options for extensions of up to two years and a further two years, subject to satisfactory performance and quality reviews; the maximum term is seven years. The tender closed on 29 May 2026. Suppliers could respond for any number of lots and could receive multiple awards. Each lot was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win, this award provides a clear benchmark for a recurring housing-provider requirement: multi-year, geographically divided fire-safety servicing and maintenance, combining electrical building installation maintenance, firefighting equipment maintenance and related electrical work. Credible competitors will need the technical capability and operational coverage to service housing properties reliably across their chosen area, backed by sound financial capacity. The evaluation placed 60% of the score on quality, split between written and presented responses, so suppliers need to demonstrate both a strong service approach on paper and the ability to explain and evidence delivery. The buyer considered SME and voluntary-sector participation suitable, and suppliers were able to compete across multiple geographic lots. Sustained performance and service quality matter, as extension decisions are conditional on satisfactory reviews.
