Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Wandsworth has concluded the procurement process for the "Fire Alarm and Emergency Lighting Maintenance for Housing Boroughwide" project. This involves two key lots: Lot 1 focuses on the inspection, servicing, and maintenance of fire alarms and automatic smoke ventilation systems, while Lot 2 concerns emergency lighting services in residential housing blocks. The procurement process was conducted under an open procedure, and the contract was awarded on 26th January 2026. Wandsworth is located in the UKI34 region, South West London, UK. The contracts are set to commence on 2nd April 2026 and extend to 1st April 2031, with potential renewal options for an additional two years. Both lots have been awarded, with Fire Systems Limited securing Lot 1 and Smith and Byford Limited procuring Lot 2, and the award notifications are currently in the pending stage.

This tender presents lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in electrical building maintenance services, particularly those experienced in fire safety and lighting. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) such as Fire Systems Limited are well-positioned to compete due to the open procurement method and criteria optimised for quality and price. The contract's substantial duration, with a potential total period of up to seven years including renewals, provides a stable growth opportunity for companies looking to establish or expand their presence in public-sector service provision. With the focus on quality, non-price factors, and social value alongside competitive pricing, businesses that demonstrate these attributes stand to benefit significantly from such public procurement contracts.
