In plain English

Central Bedfordshire Council wants a fire safety contractor to look after the fire protection equipment in its council housing homes. The work covers regular servicing, testing and repairs, plus emergency call-outs, and the estimated value is £405,000.

What the buyer wants

• Planned preventative maintenance, inspection, testing and repair of fire alarms, dry risers, fire extinguishers, sprinkler and mist systems, fire blankets and automatic smoke ventilation systems • Emergency call-out services when fire safety equipment needs urgent attention • Asset management and statutory compliance reporting across the council's housing portfolio

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice requires a suitably qualified contractor that is BAFE-registered (registered with the fire protection industry's BAFE certification scheme), so a small business without that registration would most likely be ruled out.

Always check the tender documents.
