Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Servicing and Maintenance of Fire, Security and Alarm Systems by Lancashire County Council began with planning in May 2025, followed by tender issuance in July 2025, and concluded with an award notice in November 2025. This contract involves delivering services across Lancashire, UK, under an open procurement process. The tender value is £3.5 million with a gross amount of £4.2 million, split into two lots for Northern and Southern regions, each having different contract values, start, and end dates. The contract is set to start from December 1, 2025, and span up to five years, including potential renewals. The procurement stage was cancelled as of 12 December 2025 due to unforeseen circumstances.

This procurement presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specialised in fire alarms, surveillance, and security systems. Companies like S. J. F. Electrics Limited and EFT Systems Limited have already been involved as successful suppliers, demonstrating suitability for businesses with technical proficiency in security systems. Companies with experience in maintenance services and the capability to manage contracts in a public sector setting could benefit from similar future projects by Lancashire County Council. The tender relies heavily on qualitative and cost-effective solutions, with opportunities for renewing the contract and leveraging substantial business value.
