Summary of the contracting process

Knowsley Council procured passive fire protection remedial works at Plantation Primary School in Huyton. The requirement was for internal works arising from an independent fire inspection and compartmentation survey. The scope included fire stopping to walls, ceilings, risers, communications rooms, stairwells, protected lobbies and corridors; structural steel protection; fire and cavity barriers; and removal and reinstatement of defective plasterboard partitions or other installations. It also covered replacement and remediation of fire doorsets, including frames, glazing, seals, ironmongery and self-closing devices, across compartmentation areas, protected escape routes, risers, plant rooms and ancillary spaces. The contractor was to act as principal contractor under CDM regulations, liaise with the site team and project manager, and supervise and inspect all works.

This below-threshold procurement used a limited competition and is complete. One lot was awarded to FRANK ROGERS (BUILDING CONTRACTOR) LIMITED. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 17 July 2026 to 28 August 2026. Its value is £108,874.13 excluding VAT, or £130,648.96 including VAT. The awarded work is classified as fire-prevention installation works. The process selected a supplier for the council’s specified remedial works following the school’s inspection findings. The contract is active, and the award is recorded against the single completed lot. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition route; the available procurement information does not set out a separate weighting or scoring basis.

This requirement demonstrates demand from Knowsley Council for specialist passive fire protection contractors able to deliver remedial works in an occupied or operational school environment and coordinate closely with site personnel and a project manager. A credible competitor would need practical expertise in fire stopping, compartmentation, structural steel protection, fire and cavity barriers, fire doorsets, plasterboard partition reinstatement and replacement of defective fire protection systems. It would also need to manage varied building interfaces, including mechanical, electrical, water, gas and communications risers, protected escape routes and plant spaces. Capability to act as principal contractor under CDM regulations, use proven-performing products and systems, and provide installer-company supervision and inspection would be important when this buyer next procures comparable school remedial works.
