Summary of the contracting process

Salix Homes commissioned external-wall fire risk assessment services. The work concerns assessing fire risks associated with the external walls of its housing stock, within the architectural, engineering and inspection services category (CPV 71000000). The buyer is Salix Homes, based in Salford. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom; no more specific work site is identified. This is a building fire-safety consultancy requirement rather than fire response or installation work. The procurement is presented as a single requirement, covering the external-wall assessments for Salix Homes.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to MJM Fire Consultants Limited. Salix Homes used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. One lot is recorded, and one supplier was selected. The contract was signed on 16 September 2026 and runs from 17 September 2026 to 16 September 2027. Its value is £124,000 excluding VAT and £148,800 including VAT. The recorded award is active and the contract is active. The available procurement information does not set out an evaluation basis or eligibility requirements, so the award route and outcome are the main stated process details.

For a supplier considering similar future work for Salix Homes, this award shows demand for specialist assessment of fire risks on building external walls. A credible competitor would need demonstrable expertise in fire risk assessment and the technical ability to inspect and evaluate external-wall construction, then provide clear professional findings for a housing provider. The buyer selected a specialist fire consultancy, indicating that relevant fire-safety consultancy experience is central to the requirement. Delivery was specified across the United Kingdom, so suppliers should be equipped to carry out assessments at the buyer’s relevant properties. The award was made directly without competition; it offers evidence of the buyer’s requirement and procurement route, rather than an open opportunity. No particular accreditation, named methodology or staffing level is stated.
