Sutton Housing Partnership, on behalf of the London Borough of Sutton (Sutton Council) is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified organisations for the delivery of a contract for the standard and complex fire risk assessments.

Standard and complex fire risk assessments as follows:

Type 1: inspection of common parts only (non-destructive) to satisfy the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (FSO) and complete fire risk assessment action plans.

Type 2: destructive to common parts only, generally similar to type 1, except that there is a degree of destructive inspection.

Type 3: fire risk assessment includes the work involved in a type 1 fire risk assessment but goes beyond the scope of the FSO, but not the scope of the Housing Act.

Type 4 fire risk assessment which is similar to type 3 fire risk assessment scope of work, except that there is a degree of destructive inspection, in both the common parts and the flats, carried out on a sampling basis.

A selection questionnaire is available on this portal which Sutton Housing Partnership (SHP) shall evaluate to identify the shortlisted supplies to be invited to tender.

The Council shall not be bound to accept the lowest cost or any tender.

The award of contract shall be based on the most economically advantageous tender submitted.
