The procurement is currently at the Tender stage, with submissions due by 30th October 2020. The estimated budget for this project is £200,000, and it will focus on urgent remedial works that comply with fire safety regulations. The contract period is set to commence on 1st December 2020 and conclude by 31st March 2021. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in fire safety and door remedial works, to align with industry best practices and achieve third-party accreditation. Companies with expertise in managing fire safety compliance within healthcare settings will be especially well-suited to compete for this contract. As the Trust anticipates ongoing work over the next few years, this tender represents an initial phase of a larger project, thus creating potential for sustained business engagement and growth in this sector. ## Notice A full survey of fire doors has been completed to reassure the Trust that capacity to prevent the spread of fire within our premises is compliant with the requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the guidance in Health Technical Memorandum 05-02 and the CLG Guide to Fire Safety Risk assessments in Healthcare premises. The surveys covered all three Western Sussex sites and indicated numerous deficiencies in fire doors. The Trust is now looking to ensure that remedial works are undertaken initially at Southlands Hospital in Shoreham West Sussex and St Richards Hospital in Chichester, to ensure that suitable fire doors are in place to protect the most vulnerable of our patients. The Trust seeks to act on, using the safest and most cost effective methods, the recommendations and remedial actions from the fire door survey to achieve fire compliance within the Trust hospitals. For the purpose of this tender exercise the Trust will be looking to complete ALL priority 1 and 2 areas of non-compliance at Southlands and St. Richards Hospitals only, which are detailed in the attached spreadsheet. The Trust estimates that a further four years of work will be required to complete all of the breaches in its infrastructure. This requirement will form the basis of separate tender exercise(s). Contractors are to be preferably third party accredited in fire door remedial works as it is anticipated that Trust fire doors will be upgraded in accordance with industry best practice. Such practice will be as detailed by the Timber Research and Development Association guidance, the British Woodworking Federation of any other third party accreditation body. It is recognised that, due to the age of doors and the unknown manufacturer, many doors will not be able to be "certificated" under a third party scheme. However, it is understood that undertaking remedial works that suit best practice will ensure an adequate level of protection. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/15be7458-cc91-4019-8a58-6756ba016d4c | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Competitive quotation (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Oct 2020 | | Submission deadline | 30 Oct 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2020 - 31 Mar 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £200,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WESTERN SUSSEX HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST | | Locality | CHICHESTER | | Post town | Portsmouth | | Postcode | PO19 6SE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ2 Surrey, East and West Sussex | | ITL 3 | TLJ27 West Sussex (South West) | | Local authority | Chichester | | Electoral ward | Chichester North | | Westminster constituency | Chichester | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ### Codes - 44221220 - Fire doors ## Release History - 20 Oct 2020 at 09:12 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/15be7458-cc91-4019-8a58-6756ba016d4c ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/15be7458-cc91-4019-8a58-6756ba016d4c 20th October 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
