Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the "B&NES Fire & Security Systems Framework" was initiated by Bath & North East Somerset Council, a sub-central government public authority. The framework agreement is for the design, installation, and maintenance of fire and security systems on a wide estate basis. The procurement process employed was an open procedure, ensuring transparency and competition, and the framework is closed with fixed pricing and a single supplier. The most recent stage involved the signing of a contract with ABCA Systems Limited on 13th November 2025, valued at £6,000,000, set to run from December 2025 to November 2029. The procurement primarily falls under the works category, covering regions in the UK such as Bath (UKK12).

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly suitable for companies specialising in security and fire alarm systems, electrical installations, and maintenance services. Such opportunities can be ideal for SMEs looking to expand their reach in the public sector, leveraging the opportunity to secure long-term contracts with fixed pricing. ABCA Systems Limited, the awarded supplier, is an SME based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, indicating that businesses of similar size and calibre can successfully compete in this arena. The framework's nature as a single supplier contract underscores the importance of competitive pricing and quality service offerings in order to secure such a procurement opportunity.
