Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council is procuring fire risk assessment services for its housing and corporate properties. The work is classified as health and safety services, including fire and explosion protection and control consultancy. The requirement concerns assessing fire risks across the council’s housing and corporate estate; delivery is in Sheffield. This is a services contract intended to support fire safety across both property areas.

The council invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement is divided into one lot, with an estimated value of £240,200 excluding VAT (£288,240 including VAT). The contract period is 1 December 2026 to 31 March 2028. Bidders could submit questions until 20 October 2026 at 23:00, and offers were due by 21 October 2026 at 16:00. The council planned to decide the award by 23 November 2026. Evaluation allocates 60% to price and 40% to quality. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This opportunity may suit fire safety consultancies and health and safety service providers able to carry out fire risk assessments across both housing and corporate properties. Suppliers need relevant fire risk assessment and fire protection expertise to address the council’s requirements across these property types. The single-lot scope makes this a combined requirement rather than separate competitions for housing and corporate premises. The council identifies the work as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller specialist providers may also find it relevant. Price is the larger part of the evaluation, while quality also carries substantial weight; bidders need to present a competitive price alongside a strong-quality proposal.
