## Summary

Southern Housing procured fire-stopping and passive fire protection works, classified as fireproofing work (CPV 45343100). The requirement covers work delivered across the East Midlands, West Midlands, London, the South East and the South West of England. It is a works contract for Southern Housing, a housing provider. The scope is described as Fire Stopping – Passive Fire, indicating work to prevent or restrict the spread of fire through buildings by protecting openings, joints, penetrations and building elements. Suppliers operating across several English regions, particularly those providing passive fire protection and fire-stopping services for housing assets, are within the relevant market.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 1 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 30 September 2027. The awarded value is £1,000,000. Southern Housing awarded the contract to Harmony Fire Ltd, a small or medium-sized enterprise, on 19 August 2026. The award is active. The evaluation basis and any lot structure are not set out in the available procurement details. The requirement was suitable for SMEs and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from Southern Housing for passive fire protection and fire-stopping delivery across multiple English regions, at a scale suited to an established specialist SME or a capable regional delivery network. Relevant competitors would need practical expertise in fire-stopping and passive fire protection works, together with the workforce, supervision and operational capacity to deliver consistently across the East Midlands, West Midlands, London, the South East and the South West. Experience of working for housing providers and managing work across occupied or dispersed housing assets would strengthen credibility, provided it can be evidenced. Familiarity with framework call-offs would also be important, since this procurement route was used.
