Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council recently completed an open tender procurement process, awarding a contract for the supply, delivery, installation, commissioning, maintenance, servicing, and monitoring of security alarms and CCTV systems in buildings owned and managed by the council. The procurement stage has reached the award phase as of 26th November 2025, with the contract valued at approximately £7.2 million gross. The awarded contract will commence on 1st May 2026 and is scheduled to last until 30th April 2030, with options for extension. This procurement falls under the industry categories of burglar and fire alarms, security equipment, and alarm-monitoring services, specifically within the UKC14 region.

This contract represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the security sector, particularly those specialising in comprehensive security solutions for large-scale organisations. Larger firms like ADT Fire and Security PLC, which was awarded the contract, are ideally positioned to leverage this opportunity, benefiting from the long-term service requirements stipulated in the contract. Moreover, businesses capable of providing high-quality implementation, management, and competitive pricing within public sector parameters are well-suited for future tenders. The contract's uplift potential with options to extend by up to 4 years underscores the growth possibilities for service providers in security and alarm systems.
