UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire Fire Authority procured Safety Check Training Level 2 services: specialist training for its safety-check requirements. The work is classified as specialist training services and is intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. The procurement covers one lot and is a service requirement for the Authority. The selected provider is Anchor Fire Protection Ltd, a Warrington-based small business. This award shows the type of specialist training Cheshire Fire Authority buys; the award information does not describe course content, participant numbers or delivery sites in more detail.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Anchor Fire Protection Ltd on 2 October 2026. The awarded value is £46,000 excluding VAT (£55,200 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028, with an option for two further periods of at least 12 months each; the latest stated end date is 31 December 2030. The process used a below-threshold procurement route and was divided into one lot. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are set out in the published procurement data.

For suppliers tracking Cheshire Fire Authority’s training requirements, this award demonstrates demand for specialist Safety Check Training Level 2 services delivered in the UK. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to provide relevant specialist training and the capacity to deliver the required service over a sustained contract period. Anchor Fire Protection Ltd, a small business, was selected, showing that a supplier of that scale could secure the work. The procurement was handled through a below-threshold route and awarded as a single lot, so suppliers should be able to support the requirement as one service package rather than relying on separate lot opportunities. The awarded provider and value indicate a real purchase, but the source gives no course-specific technical or qualification standards to use as a benchmark.
