Summary of the contracting process

Sutton Housing Partnership Limited is procuring fire door inspection services for properties it manages on behalf of the London Borough of Sutton. The requirement is a technical inspection and testing service covering fire doors, intended to support fire safety assurance across the housing stock. Sutton Housing Partnership is the public-sector buyer, based in Sutton. Delivery is therefore connected with properties managed by the partnership for the London Borough of Sutton. The work is a specialist compliance and inspection service rather than construction, installation or general building maintenance. Businesses with a focus on fire door surveys, housing safety inspections, building compliance or related technical testing would find the subject matter relevant.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Sutton Housing Partnership used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition, for a single lot. Bellrock Consulting UK Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 9 November 2025 and has a one-day contract period on 8 November 2026. Its value is £60,000 excluding VAT and £61,200 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contract is recorded as active, and the award is active. The procurement concerns services classified as technical inspection and testing. Sutton Housing Partnership manages the properties involved on behalf of the London Borough of Sutton.

This award indicates a substantial, concentrated requirement for specialist fire door inspection across housing properties managed by Sutton Housing Partnership. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable expertise in fire door inspection and technical testing, with the ability to assess doors consistently against applicable fire safety and compliance requirements. Experience working in social housing or other occupied residential portfolios would be relevant, particularly where inspection programmes must be organised across multiple properties and produce reliable, auditable findings. The successful supplier’s profile also shows that the buyer accepted a large specialist consultancy provider for this requirement. Businesses seeking similar work with this buyer should therefore be able to demonstrate professional systems, suitably competent inspectors, dependable reporting and sufficient operational capacity for a defined housing portfolio.
