## Summary

The Oil and Pipelines Agency (OPA) has initiated an open tender for the project titled "GB-London: OPA T272/1554 Building Fire Risk Assessments (FRA)," aimed at updating fire risk assessments for six oil fuel depots managed by the agency across the UK. This contract falls under the professional services for the oil industry and is crucial for compliance with fire safety regulations. The tender period will end on 17 May 2019, with the contract anticipated to commence shortly thereafter on 23 May 2019 and last until 23 July 2019. The estimated value of the contract ranges from £10,000 to £25,000, making it a significant opportunity for interested bidders.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in fire safety assessments and oil industry services. Companies that excel in risk assessment and safety management, particularly those familiar with regulatory compliance in the oil sector, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Engaging in this tender can foster business growth by opening avenues for collaboration with a government agency and enhancing experience in the critical area of fire safety.

## Notice

The OPA operate and manage six Oil Fuel Depots (OFDs on behalf of MoD) all within the UK; four in Scotland (Campbeltown, Garelochhead (GHD), Loch Striven and Loch Ewe) and two in Engl and (Gosport and Thanckes). They are all top-tier COMAH sites, except Gosport. This requirement is for all 6 OFDs. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 / Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 require that arrangements for the effective planning, organization, control, monitoring and review of the fire safety measures are in place and that a risk assessment is carried out. The Building FRA for the OFDs were last done in 2015 and as there have been some changes to the building infrastructure we require them to be updated. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
