## Summary

Hull City Council procured fire safety consultancy services to carry out comprehensive Fire Risk Appraisals of External Walls (FRAEW) for 14 of its high-risk residential buildings over 18 metres high. The work covers fire prevention, and fire and explosion protection and control consultancy, under the council’s responsibility as buyer. Delivery is associated with Hull, including the HU1 2AA area. This is a construction consultancy requirement focused on assessing external wall fire risk in tall residential buildings, rather than construction works or the supply of equipment. It is relevant to fire safety consultants, building safety specialists and firms with experience in external wall appraisal, fire risk assessment and related technical advice for occupied or high-rise residential property. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a further competition under the EN: Procure Construction Consultancy Services Framework Gen-4, Lot 12 for Fire Safety Consultant Services. The tender submission deadline was 1 June 2026 at 12:00. Firntec Ltd was awarded the contract on 21 July 2026 for £240,000 including the overall budget, with no extension option. The contract runs from 21 July 2026 to 19 July 2027. Hull City Council is the buyer and Firntec Ltd is the selected supplier. The published award records the award as active. The stated evaluation basis is the framework further-competition route; the procurement record does not set out separate quality or price weightings. The requirement covers one service package rather than separately described lots.

This award shows Hull City Council’s demand for specialist external wall fire-risk appraisal across high-rise residential housing, delivered through a construction consultancy framework and a further competition. A credible competitor for comparable work would need suitably experienced fire safety consultants able to assess external wall systems and produce comprehensive FRAEW advice for residential buildings over 18 metres. Relevant capability includes fire prevention, fire and explosion protection, building safety risk assessment, technical reporting and the capacity to coordinate work across multiple high-risk properties. Firms should be able to demonstrate dependable delivery at a multi-building scale and understand the practical requirements of council-owned residential stock. The opportunity is particularly relevant to SMEs with established fire safety consultancy expertise and framework procurement experience.
