The requirement spans CCTV; car park barriers; intruder, panic and alert alarm systems; entrance and access control; screening equipment; Martyn’s Law and lockdown consultancy; and lockdown alert systems. Depending on the lot, services include supply, installation, maintenance, consumables, consultancy or installation-only work. The framework is intended for further education institutions, universities, sixth forms, academies, schools and other CPC members, with local authorities able to procure on behalf of educational establishments. It will also be available to the wider public sector. Delivery covers the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and other international locations.

The buyer has reached the tender stage and invited offers through an open procedure. Bids were due by 31 August 2026 at 12:00. The framework contract period is 16 November 2026 to 15 November 2029. Its estimated total value is £10,428,801. The opportunity is divided into seven lots: CCTV; car park barriers; intruder, panic and alert alarms; entrance and access control; screening equipment; Martyn’s Law and lockdown consultancy; and lockdown alert systems. Suppliers can target the lot or lots matching their offer. The procurement is categorised as goods, with the detailed requirement combining equipment supply and related installation, maintenance, consumables and consultancy services. The published process does not state an award weighting.

This opportunity suits security equipment manufacturers, distributors, installers, maintenance providers and specialist consultants, including small and medium-sized enterprises. Relevant capability may include designing, supplying and installing CCTV, barriers, alarm, access-control, screening or lockdown-alert systems, together with planned and reactive maintenance and consumables support. Consultancy firms with experience in Martyn’s Law, lockdown planning and security risk advice may suit the dedicated consultancy lot. Suppliers should be able to serve education and wider public-sector organisations across multiple locations, manage equipment delivery and installation, and support systems throughout a multi-year framework. Businesses with a focused specialism can pursue an individual lot, while broader security contractors may be suited to several lots.
