Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a fire safety risk management system known as Farynor. The requirement is for software-related services supporting the council’s management of fire safety risk. The work is delivered in Chichester, West Sussex, within the South East of England. The procurement is classified under CPV 72260000, covering software-related services. It is a services requirement rather than a goods or construction contract. The council is the buying organisation and the identified delivery address is West Street, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19 1RQ. Businesses supplying fire safety risk management software, implementation and associated software services would find the subject matter relevant. The requirement concerns a named system and its provision to the council, rather than general fire safety equipment, building works or unrelated information technology services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 29 September 2023 to ATKINSREALIS UK LIMITED. The awarded value is £336,480. The contract runs from 6 October 2023 to 5 October 2027. It was conducted as a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than as a standalone open competition. The tender deadline was 22 September 2023 at 12:00. The procurement’s estimated value is also £336,480. The award is active. The requirement was treated as a single services procurement, with no SME or voluntary, community or social enterprise suitability. The award outcome indicates that ATKINSREALIS UK LIMITED was selected to provide the fire safety risk management system and related software services.

For suppliers considering future work from West Sussex County Council, this award demonstrates demand for a dedicated fire safety risk management system delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor would need a relevant software product or service capability focused on managing fire safety risk, together with the technical capacity to support a public-sector customer over a multi-year contract. The selected supplier is a large organisation, and the procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community or social enterprises. Businesses should therefore be able to demonstrate comparable organisational scale, dependable service delivery and experience supplying software-related services through framework arrangements. Providers combining fire safety expertise with implementation, support and system management capability would be closest to this requirement when it returns to market.
