The requirement covers both visual and intrusive surveys, intended to assess the condition and safety of the Council’s high-rise housing stock. The work is delivered in Leeds, including the LS1 1UR area, within Yorkshire and the Humber. This is a services opportunity rather than a construction or supply contract. The relevant classification is building surveying services (CPV 71315300). The Council is the buying organisation and the requirement concerns its own high-rise blocks. Businesses operating in building surveying, structural inspection or building safety assessment may find the scope relevant where they can undertake both non-invasive visual inspections and intrusive investigations in occupied or operational high-rise buildings. The procurement has been completed and awarded following a restricted procedure above threshold. The tender submission deadline was 7 August 2026 at 12:00. Leeds City Council awarded the contract to Firntec Ltd on 21 August 2026. The awarded value is £476,444.80. The contract runs from 19 August 2026 to 18 August 2027. The requirement was treated as a single service scope, with no separate lots identified. Evaluation was carried out through the restricted procedure, which limits the tendering stage to selected suppliers. The procurement was classified as a service contract and was considered suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the contract period covers delivery of the high-rise building safety survey services during the stated term. This procurement demonstrates a defined requirement from Leeds City Council for specialist building safety surveying across high-rise blocks. A credible future competitor would need to deliver both visual and intrusive surveys, understand the inspection of high-rise buildings, and provide building surveying services at the scale required for a Council-wide block portfolio. The work calls for teams able to plan investigations, carry out intrusive site activity safely, record findings consistently and produce clear assessments for a public-sector client. SMEs were considered suitable, so a smaller specialist surveying business may be well placed to compete, either independently or through a delivery partnership that provides the necessary technical capacity. Relevant experience in high-rise building inspection and safety assessment would support credibility when this buyer’s requirement returns to market. ## Notice To undertake Visual and Intrusive Surveys on Leeds City Council's ("the Council") High Rise Blocks ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/fe128f94-8ed7-4e1f-aae3-418f8e01c473 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | 7 Aug 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 21 Aug 2026 | | Contract period | 19 Aug 2026 - 18 Aug 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £476,444 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Leeds City Council | | Locality | LEEDS | | Postcode area | Leeds | | Postcode | LS1 1UR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Little London & Woodhouse | | Westminster constituency | Leeds Central and Headingley | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | Firntec Ltd | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71315300 - Building surveying services ## Release History - 21 Aug 2026 at 13:37 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/fe128f94-8ed7-4e1f-aae3-418f8e01c473 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/fe128f94-8ed7-4e1f-aae3-418f8e01c473 21st August 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.leeds.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
