## Summary

The University of Wolverhampton Enterprise Limited conducted a tender for "Fire Door and Compartmentation Surveys and Audits," aimed at addressing regulatory requirements following the Grenfell fire tragedy. The process involved a selective procurement method, utilising the Fusion21 framework to select an appropriate contractor. The tender period closed on 1 March 2020, and the awarded contract, valued at £379,125, commenced on 16 March 2020 and will run until 15 March 2023. The services are to be delivered in the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom, classified under fire-prevention services.

This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in fire safety and prevention services, particularly those capable of providing accredited inspectors with qualifications such as a Diploma in Fire Doors and/or Fire Stopping Inspection. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to participate, as the procurement process is designed to be inclusive and supportive of smaller firms, allowing them to leverage their specialised expertise in response to the University’s safety mandate.

## Notice

The University sought to appoint a contractor to undertake Fire Door & Compartmentation Surveys across all areas as required. The project was instigated to address regulatory requirements and recommendations that followed the Grenfell fire tragedy. A range of framework providers were approached regarding potential frameworks. However some potential frameworks were not fire specific and listed suppliers were not a good fit for our requirements or were unable to meet the University's mandatory requirement for inspectors to hold a Diploma in Fire Doors and/or Diploma in Fire Stopping Inspection. The Fusion21 framework was identified as having requirement suitable providers who were able to meet the University's inspector accreditation requirements and a direct award was made to the 1st ranked supplier.
