In plain English
Lancashire County Council wants a contractor to regularly service, maintain and repair its fire alarm, security alarm and related monitoring systems across its buildings. The work is split into two geographic lots, one covering the North of the county and one covering the South, so a supplier can bid for one or both.
What the buyer wants
• Planned preventative maintenance visits to inspect, test and service fire detection, intruder alarm and security systems at council sites in their lot area • Reactive call-out repairs, with a stated response time for faults and emergencies • Record keeping, certification and reporting on each site's compliance and system condition
Lots
- Lot 1 North
- Lot 2 - South
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
A business without the relevant fire and security installer certifications (such as BAFE or NSI) or without the ability to respond to emergency call-outs across its chosen lot would most likely be excluded.
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.
