Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Borough Council procured works to replace the fire alarm system at Todwick J&I School. The requirement covers fire-alarm system installation and associated alarm equipment, including burglar and fire alarms. The work is for a school site in Todwick, within the Rotherham area. This is a public-sector building-services opportunity for electrical contractors and specialist fire-alarm installers able to undertake replacement and installation works in an operational education environment. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement is classified as works rather than goods or general services. The scope is focused on one school and one complete fire-alarm replacement requirement, rather than a wider programme across multiple sites or buildings.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold procedure described as “unknown”. One lot was awarded to WDS ELECTRICAL LIMITED. The contract was signed on 29 June 2026, with delivery scheduled from 20 July to 21 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £35,743.20 gross, including VAT, in GBP. The contract is active. The published outcome identifies WDS ELECTRICAL LIMITED as the selected supplier, and the tender status is complete. The available procurement record does not state an award date separately from the contract-signing date or set out a detailed evaluation weighting. The requirement was treated as below the relevant threshold.

This procurement indicates a focused requirement suited to an electrical or specialist fire-alarm contractor with practical experience replacing and installing fire-alarm systems in schools or similar public buildings. A credible competitor for comparable work from Rotherham Borough Council would need competent installation teams, the ability to survey an existing system, plan replacement works and commission the new arrangement, and sufficient capacity to deliver a small, time-bounded site project. Familiarity with burglar and fire alarm equipment, safe working in an education setting and clear handover and testing arrangements would strengthen a future response. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that this scale of council works can suit smaller specialist businesses as well as larger contractors.
