## Summary

Moat Homes Limited commissioned a housing safety consultancy programme covering Fire Risk Assessments of External Wall construction (FRAEW), intrusive inspections and on-site visual inspections. The work applies to blocks in Moat’s housing stock and is intended to assess fire safety risks associated with external walls and identify conditions requiring attention. Delivery covers housing stock in London and the South East of England. The procurement is for services, classified under health and safety consultancy services. It is a single-supplier requirement, with Firntec Ltd appointed to carry out the programme. Businesses operating in building safety, fire risk assessment, façade inspection, intrusive surveying or related housing consultancy would find the subject matter relevant, particularly those able to work across occupied or managed residential blocks.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Moat Homes Limited used a further competition under the ProcurePublic Building Safety Consultancy Framework, using a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The award was made to Firntec Ltd, an SME, and the contract was signed on 20 August 2026. Its value is £429,000. The initial contract period is two years, with options to extend by a further two years, giving a maximum term of four years. Three bids were recorded. Price was the stated award criterion. The procurement was arranged as one lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the associated award remains active. The contract is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from a housing provider for coordinated external-wall fire risk assessments, intrusive inspections and visual inspections across a substantial residential property portfolio. A credible future competitor would need practical building-safety consultancy capability, competent fire-risk assessors and inspection teams, and the capacity to plan and deliver repeatable surveys across blocks in London and the South East. Experience of external-wall construction, intrusive investigation, evidence gathering and clear technical reporting would be directly relevant. Suppliers would also need to manage access, site activity and consistent quality across multiple residential locations. The award of a single contract through the ProcurePublic Building Safety Consultancy Framework indicates that framework access and the ability to compete on price are commercially important for this buyer’s requirement.
