Summary of the contracting process

Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council procured active fire services for its 2026–2030 requirement. The scope is described as fire and explosion protection and control consultancy services, covering advice and related professional support for active fire safety. The work is delivered for the council in Stockton-on-Tees, with the procurement managed by the council as the public-sector buyer. The requirement was arranged through the Northern Housing Consortium’s Active Fire Framework, specifically its Active Fire framework route. It is a services contract rather than a supply or construction project, and the procurement comprised one completed lot. This opportunity is therefore relevant to fire safety consultancies and specialist firms able to provide active fire protection, fire risk control and fire-and-explosion-related consultancy to a local authority through an applicable framework.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded. Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council used a selective procedure, described as a below-threshold award under a framework, with competition between framework suppliers. Firntec Ltd was appointed on 15 July 2026. The award and contract value is £15,489.46 excluding VAT, or £18,587.35 including VAT; these figures relate to the single awarded lot and are not totals across multiple awards. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 20 July 2026 to 19 July 2027. The award was made under the Northern Housing Consortium’s Active Fire Framework, and the recorded procurement status is complete, with the contract status active. The award concerns consultancy services for active fire protection and control.

This award shows a local authority buying specialist active fire consultancy through a recognised housing-sector framework, at a relatively small, focused contract scale. A competing supplier would need to demonstrate credible expertise in active fire protection and in controlling fire and explosion risks, with the ability to provide consultancy rather than only installation, maintenance or equipment supply. Experience of advising public-sector or housing clients would help establish suitability for a comparable requirement, particularly where work must be delivered for a borough council and secured through a framework competition. Firms should also be able to operate within framework terms, respond to selective call-off opportunities and provide suitably qualified personnel and clear technical advice on active fire safety.
