## Summary

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured a passive fire protection and compartmentation survey for its buildings and facilities. The work concerns assessing passive fire protection measures and compartmentation, helping the Trust understand the condition and effectiveness of fire safety arrangements across its estate. It is categorised as building and facilities management services and identified as works for procurement purposes. Delivery is in the South East of England, including the area covered by postcode SG1 4AB. The buying organisation is based at Gate House, Fretherne Road, Welwyn Garden City, England. This opportunity is relevant to businesses that survey, inspect or assess passive fire protection and fire compartmentation in healthcare or other complex occupied buildings.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a direct award call-off from the RM6237 framework agreement, using a selective procurement method. The tender submission deadline was 10 August 2026 at 12:00. The estimated value was between £80,000 and £86,000, in GBP. The contract was awarded on 20 August 2026 to Golden Thread Fire Delay Ltd, an SME, for £86,000. The contract period runs from 21 August 2026 to 21 November 2026. The award is active. The requirement was assessed as suitable for neither SMEs nor voluntary, community or social enterprises. The available information identifies the framework route and direct-award approach, but does not set out separate lots or an evaluation weighting.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from an NHS Trust for specialist passive fire protection and compartmentation surveying over a concentrated delivery period. Competitors seeking similar work should be able to inspect healthcare or comparable complex buildings, assess fire-stopping and compartmentation arrangements, and produce clear, technically reliable findings for an estate owner. Credibility is likely to depend on demonstrable technical competence, sufficient surveying capacity to cover the required sites within the delivery window, and experience of working in occupied healthcare environments with appropriate safety and access controls. Suppliers should also understand framework call-off and direct-award routes, since this requirement was obtained through RM6237 rather than an open standalone competition.
