Thameslink, Southern and Great Northern (TSGN), a train operator, wants a survey of the fire protection in the ceiling voids of its depots, where fire breaks and fire stopping may be missing or non-compliant.

The work is split into three geographic lots: the North, London, and the South.

What the buyer wants

• Survey the existing fire breaks, fire stopping and void protection in the ceiling voids across the depots in each lot • Assess how the void protection works with the current fire alarm system • Produce a costed scope of works for fire protection of the roof voids, including fire breaks and fire stopping to existing walls
