The tender, titled "The National Archives - Fire Engineering Services," aims to work in partnership with a supplier for an initial contract period of three years, with two possible twelve-month extensions. The contract value is estimated not to exceed £250,000 excluding VAT. This selective procurement process has a tender deadline of June 9, 2023, with a contract start date of July 1, 2023. The location for service delivery is in TW9 4DU, England, within the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services sector. This opportunity from The National Archives is well-suited for businesses offering fire engineering technical services. The tender presents a chance for growth through partnering with the buyer on capital projects and fire safety audits. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process is a restricted procedure above the threshold. Businesses should consider aligning their offerings with the detailed technical support requirements outlined in the tender to maximise their chances of securing this contract and contributing to The National Archives' projects in the upcoming years. ## Notice The objective of this tender exercise is to source a specialist Fire Engineering Technical Services partner to support The National Archives' Estates team in the delivery of a range of capital projects and fire strategy requirements. Capital projects will range from building fabric through to large mechanical plant. Therefore, we need a Fire Engineering partner that is able to offer a range of detailed technical support. Our aim is to work in partnership with a supplier who will provide additional resources as and when required to complement The National Archives' existing Estates Capital Projects team, in key areas such as, Fire Strategy review, Fire Safety Audits and Building Design. The supplier will support the Estates design team with specifications for tender documents will go on to support any required for design changes to building design, providing associated reports and drawings. We intend to award a contract for an initial period of three years, with two extension options of twelve months each. We anticipate that the demand for these services over the duration of the initial contract period will not exceed a total expenditure of PS250,000 excluding VAT, but The National Archives can make no commitment to any minimum level of expenditure during the contract period. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6077fa36-6a5e-43cf-9978-8345c6d17377 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 May 2023 | | Submission deadline | 9 Jun 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Jun 2023 - 30 Jun 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £250,000 | | 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 | THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES | | Locality | RICHMOND | | Post town | Twickenham | | Postcode | TW9 4DU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI7 Outer London - West and North West | | ITL 3 | TLI75 Hounslow and Richmond upon Thames | | Local authority | Richmond upon Thames | | Electoral ward | Kew | | Westminster constituency | Richmond Park | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ## Release History - 10 May 2023 at 14:04 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6077fa36-6a5e-43cf-9978-8345c6d17377 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6077fa36-6a5e-43cf-9978-8345c6d17377 10th May 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3b3e8148-e79a-4941-8936-43ed63a3528b ## Notice URLs - http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
