UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of London Corporation commissioned a full inspection of communal fire doors, in line with the agreed requirements. This is a specialist building-inspection service covering communal fire-door assets and is classified as technical building-inspection work (CPV 71631300). The buying organisation is The Mablyor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, commonly known as the City of London Corporation. The work is for communal properties in the City of London. The requirement is focused on inspecting fire doors rather than supplying, installing or repairing them, so it is relevant to firms providing professional fire-door inspection and associated building-safety assessment services.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. It comprised one lot. The selected supplier was The FDI Ltd, with an active award. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026 and ran from 24 July 2026 to 20 August 2026. Its gross value was £42,028.20 including taxes. The contract is recorded as active, while the tender itself is complete. The stated requirement was a full inspection of communal fire doors under the attached agreement. No competitive evaluation basis is recorded for this direct award, and the available outcome identifies The FDI Ltd as the supplier for the complete requirement.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from the City of London Corporation for external expertise in full inspections of communal fire doors. Suppliers best placed for comparable future work would be specialist fire-door inspection businesses with the technical knowledge, trained personnel and operational capacity to assess communal fire-door assets across a public-sector estate. Credibility would depend on being able to deliver a complete inspection service against an agreed specification, produce reliable findings and work within building-safety requirements. The successful supplier is a large company, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with the organisational capacity to undertake the full requirement. Firms should monitor this buyer’s repeat demand for the same specialist service.
