Summary of the contracting process

Homes in Somerset Limited, a public authority operating under sub-central government, has concluded a procurement process for the provision of Fire Safety Services, with the award taking place on 27th January 2026. The contract involves servicing, repairs, and maintenance of fire safety systems across approximately 194 sites within Somerset (region UKK23). The process was held under an open procurement method and has reached the award stage, with the successful supplier being Severnside Security Ltd. The contract, valued at £600,000 gross, commenced on 1st December 2025 and is set to continue until 30th November 2027, with the possibility of yearly renewals up to 2030.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in repair and maintenance services of fire safety equipment. SMEs capable of providing comprehensive fire alarm systems, emergency and lightning protection services, along with the installation and maintenance of various fire safety components, such as sprinklers and smoke systems, are particularly well-situated to compete. This contract allows for the contractor to subcontract if they cannot meet all requirements, offering further opportunities for collaboration and expansion within the sector.
