Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hackney procured specialist consultancy services for external fire-safety remedial works. The requirement was to carry out fire-risk surveys of external walls, supporting the council’s assessment and remediation of fire-safety risks in buildings. The procurement falls within architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services, with construction-related work also identified. Delivery was associated with Hackney, London. The buying organisation was the London Borough of Hackney. The requirement was structured as a single lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled. The wider tender is complete, and the related award and contract records identify Airey Miller as the selected supplier. This is therefore relevant to fire-safety consultants, building surveyors, façade specialists and engineering practices experienced in external-wall risk assessment and remedial-work advice for public-sector housing.

The procurement has been awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, using The Hyde Building & Fire Safety framework. A framework agreement was involved. The award is active and names Airey Miller as supplier; the associated contract is also active and was signed on 6 August 2026. The tender’s evaluation basis was quality at 65%, sustainability and social value at 15%, and price at 20%. One bid was recorded for the lot. The published valid bid values for the lot ranged from £2,500,000 to £9,000,000 excluding VAT. An administrative correction changed the highest value considered for the overall procurement from £75,000,000 to £7,500,000, while the scope and award parameters remained unchanged. The single lot itself is recorded as cancelled, despite the active award and contract records.

This outcome shows demand from the London Borough of Hackney for specialist external-wall fire-risk surveying linked to remedial works, procured through a building and fire-safety framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrated competence in external-wall fire-risk surveys, construction and engineering inspection, and translating survey findings into practical remedial-work advice. The evaluation placed substantially greater emphasis on quality than price, while also giving material weight to sustainability and social value. Suppliers should therefore be able to evidence robust technical methods, clear reporting, sound risk assessment and effective engagement with a public-sector housing client, alongside credible social-value delivery. Relevant firms include fire-safety consultancies, façade and building-envelope specialists, chartered surveyors, engineers and larger multidisciplinary practices able to undertake complex external-wall assessments.
