## Summary

Oxford City Council has successfully awarded a contract pertaining to the Pound House Fire Safety works, specifically targeting the installation and commissioning of a Dry Riser. The procurement process, which is in the award stage, utilised a direct method without competition, and was completed below the threshold, thereby not requiring a competitive tender process. The contract, valued at £40,885.80 net of VAT, spans from 29th June 2025 to 29th August 2025. This procurement falls under the industry category of building consultancy services, with the work being carried out in Oxford, UKJ14 region. The contract was signed on 23rd June 2025, marking the official commissioning of the project under legal reference UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for businesses within the building consultancy and fire safety sectors. While the direct award implies competition was not open for this particular contract, the requirements set a precedent for similar future projects. Large-scale companies with expertise in fire safety installations, particularly in compliance and consultancy, stand to benefit from similar opportunities by establishing credentials and partnerships with public sector clients. Maintaining awareness of upcoming tenders from organisations such as Oxford City Council could be advantageous for businesses in this industry.
