What is being bought

Published requirement description

*Update minor change (18/06/2026) - hyperlink with regards to WPPN012 was not working. New link now provided.

Trivallis are conducting this below threshold procurement process using best practice even though only certain elements of the Procurement Act 2023 and related legislation apply to this process

Trivallis are seeking to appoint three (3) contractors to a four (4) year framework for Passive Fire Protection works including surveys, maintenance, remedial works, and new installations as may be necessary to achieve fire safety compliance as per any current and future applicable fire safety legislation. Trivallis will be using the open tender procurement procedure under the Procurement Regulations 2023. The procurement will be managed on eTender Wales.

Trivallis are utilising Procurement Policy Note WPPN012 which means we will be looking for contractors in the geographical region of South Wales only for this tender and framework. We are supporting the Welsh Governments Wellbeing of Future Generations Act 2015 Wellbeing Goals with this tender and framework.

Please see the following link for more information:

www.gov.wales/wppn-012-guidance-on… ↗

As defined in the legislation, we are looking for suppliers that are based or established in South Wales and have substantive business operations in this region. This means having a permanent base in the location not simply a registered office.

In order for Trivallis to guarantee the correct minimum legal compliance and quality standards for this tender, suppliers must have the following third party accreditation for installation & maintenance of the following fire safety systems: Cavity Barriers, Penetration Sealing, Fire Door & Timber Fire Doors.

CPV: Fire and explosion protection and control consultancy services · Fire-prevention installation works · Miscellaneous fire-protection equipment · Repair and maintenance services

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “TRIV2026 - Passive Fire Protection” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
