Summary of the contracting process

Breckland District Council is procuring dangerous structures emergency response services for its Building Control Service. The contractor will provide cover during daytime and out-of-hours periods, operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The work concerns the inspection, making safe, repair and maintenance response associated with dangerous structures and related urgent incidents. Services will be delivered for the Council in the United Kingdom, supporting its local building control responsibilities. This is a services requirement rather than a construction project with a defined build programme. It may suit contractors already providing dangerous-building response, structural emergency works, repair and maintenance services, or specialist support to local authority building control teams.

The procurement has reached tender: Breckland District Council invited quotations through a below-threshold open competition. It has one lot with an estimated gross value of £45,000 including VAT. The enquiry deadline was 18 August 2026 at 5:00pm, and offers were due by 26 August 2026 at 12:00 noon. The contract period is 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2028, with an optional one-year extension available to 31 October 2029. Quality carries 60% of the evaluation: nine pass/fail questions, five quality questions worth 55%, and one Social Value question worth 5%. Price carries the remaining 40%. Electronic submission is allowed through the Council’s tendering system.

This opportunity suits suitably qualified and experienced contractors able to respond to dangerous-structure incidents at any time, including daytime, nights, weekends and public holidays. Suppliers need the operational capacity to provide continuous emergency cover throughout the year and to mobilise for urgent building control requirements. Relevant experience in dangerous-structure response, structural inspections, securing unsafe buildings, emergency repair, demolition or associated repair and maintenance services would be well aligned with the requirement. The evaluation places greater emphasis on quality than price, so bidders should be able to demonstrate reliable response arrangements, competent personnel, safe working practices and effective delivery methods. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it potentially accessible to specialist local or regional contractors.
