Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire Support and Facilities Services Limited is procuring maintenance services for CCTV, intruder alarm, door access and fire alarm systems. The work covers security systems and alarm systems supporting the buyer’s sites in the United Kingdom, including hospital environments and critical care areas. The requirement involves maintaining systems used continuously, including services operating over a 24-hour period. A supplier would be responsible for planned maintenance and responding to call-outs across the relevant sites, while managing access to sensitive clinical areas with minimal disruption to services. This is a service contract rather than a supply or construction opportunity, and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer is based in Chesterfield.

The open procedure is complete and the award decision was dated 17 August 2026. Hunter Communication Services Ltd was selected for the single lot at £930,000 excluding VAT (£1,116,000 including VAT). The award contract period is 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with renewal described as 3+2 and a maximum extension date of 31 August 2031. The standstill period ends on 27 August 2026, and contract signature is scheduled for 1 September 2026. Two bids reached the final stage, both from SMEs. Evaluation was based on 45% price and 55% quality, covering risk assessments and method statements, experience, social value, work planning, on-call arrangements and staff training. The wider tender described a 3+2 renewal structure.

This award indicates demand from a hospital-related buyer for an integrated security-systems maintenance provider able to manage CCTV, intruder alarms, door access and fire alarms across sizeable operational sites. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable experience maintaining these systems, preferably in a hospital or similarly sized environment, with two relevant case studies explaining site scale and system coverage. Technical credibility would include expert partnership with Assa Abloy systems and approved-partner capability for Cortrol CCTV, AcuVox intercom and biometrics, TERRA public address, Honeywell Galaxy intruder alarms or Ai Phone intruder alarms. Strong evidence would also be needed for RAMS, contractor training and certification, appointment arrangements, rapid 24-hour call-out response, safe access to critical care areas, service-continuity planning and delivery of social value.
