Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured emergency replacement of fire doors at Broadmeadow. This is construction work focused on removing and replacing fire doors so that the site’s fire safety arrangements are restored. The requirement was bought by the council as a public authority, with the work associated with Broadmeadow in Kent. The awarded scope is classified as construction work, rather than goods or a standalone consultancy or maintenance service. It is therefore relevant to contractors with practical experience in fire door replacement, building works and working safely in an occupied or operational public-sector environment where emergency remedial work may be required. The council’s involvement indicates that suppliers serving public buildings and local-authority estates may find this type of requirement commercially relevant.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the published method details recorded as unknown. One completed lot was awarded to SKANSKA UK PLC, which holds an active award. The contract was signed on 1 June 2026 and runs from 7 June 2026 to 26 June 2026. Its value is £98,621.25 excluding VAT, or £118,345.50 including VAT. The contract is below the applicable threshold. The available procurement record does not set out an award criterion, eligibility requirement or bid deadline. The selected supplier is SKANSKA UK PLC, a large construction company. The requirement was treated as works and related to the completed fire door replacement lot.

This completed award provides a useful benchmark for contractors targeting Kent County Council’s emergency fire-safety works. A credible competitor would need to deliver fire door replacement as a construction service, manage urgent remedial activity and demonstrate the operational capacity to complete a short, concentrated programme. Relevant experience is likely to include surveying existing doors, coordinating removal and installation, maintaining fire-safety compliance and managing site risks. Suppliers with established construction delivery teams, suitable fire-door specialists and the ability to work for a local-authority client would be well placed to compete when a similar requirement returns. SKANSKA UK PLC’s selection also indicates that the buyer accepted a large, established contractor for this requirement, so competing businesses would need to evidence dependable mobilisation, quality control and safe delivery at comparable scale.
