Kirklees Council is looking to work with competent suppliers to deliver passive fire protection services to carry out remediation work across Kirklees Homes & Neighbourhood buildings. Kirklees Council is due to complete Fire Risk Assessments (FRA) for all buildings that require one by October 2025, the number of FRA's due to be carried before this period is currently estimated to be 872.

The building types which will have FRA are as follows

• High Rise
• Low rise buildings
• Medium rise buildings
• Retirement living schemes
• Boiler Houses
• Offices

Kirklees are looking for the suppliers on this Framework to complete all the passive fire protection remedial Works recommended as part of these assessments. The work will result mainly from Fire Risk Assessment action plans and recommendations, but works could also arise from fire safety surveys, routine maintenance checks or planned fire safety programmes.

The Framework will be broken down into two Lots and be expected to cover the provision of:

• Lot 1 - Fire Doors Supply, Fit and Maintenance - Fire Door Installation (Door & Sets) and Fire Door Maintenance (total Lot value £15,000,000)
• Lot 2 - Fire Stopping - Small Penetrations (Mastic, Pipe Collars, Vents etc.) Large Openings (Blocks, Partitions, Board, Batts etc.) (total Lot value £10,000,000)

Two Lots originally advertised (2024/S 000-029997) were abandoned:

• Lot 3 - Supply and Fit Fire Rated Glazing and Windows was abandoned due to a lack of competition.
• Lot 4 - Supply Only Fire Doors and Fire Doors Sets was abandoned due to unforeseen circumstances.

The Contract will run for 2 years with a possible 2-year extension period to take the Contract to a maximum of 48 months.
