Test Valley Borough Council wants a contractor to maintain and repair all their fire safety and security systems across their buildings for three years, with an option to extend for three more years. This includes regular planned servicing, inspections, emergency repairs, and ensuring everything meets legal and safety standards.

What the buyer wants

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

Most small, sole-trader fire safety or security engineers will struggle because this contract requires 24/7 emergency response capability, multiple technicians to cover a large estate, and the ability to hold stock of parts and maintain staff on standby, which only mid-sized or larger firms can afford.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
