Summary of the contracting process

Be One Homes procured a fire alarm upgrade at Merton Extra Care Unit, including removal of the existing system and supply of replacement burglar and fire alarm equipment. This is a goods requirement focused on upgrading life-safety and security systems at a single extra-care housing site in Merton. The buyer is Be One Homes, based in Bolton. The scope would suit businesses supplying, removing and upgrading fire alarm equipment, particularly those able to manage work in an occupied or specialist housing environment where careful coordination may be needed. The procurement’s classification is burglar and fire alarms (CPV 31625000), indicating a requirement centred on alarm equipment rather than wider construction, general electrical works or unrelated building services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It was divided into one lot. TF Jones was selected as the supplier, and the contract was signed on 6 August 2026. The contract runs from 24 August 2026 to 24 September 2026. Its value is £54,548.79 excluding VAT, or £65,458.55 including VAT. The award covers the single lot for the Merton Extra Care Unit fire alarm upgrade. The recorded outcome is an active award and active contract, so this is an award-stage opportunity rather than a procurement seeking new bids. The short contract period indicates a defined installation and removal project rather than an ongoing maintenance arrangement.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Be One Homes for specialist fire alarm replacement work at an extra-care housing facility. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need practical capability to remove an existing alarm installation, supply suitable burglar and fire alarm equipment, and complete an upgrade at a single operational site. The winning supplier, TF Jones, is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that the requirement was suitable for an SME rather than limited to a major national contractor. Relevant businesses would be those with direct alarm-system installation experience, the operational capacity to deliver a concentrated site project, and the ability to coordinate removal, replacement and handover requirements in specialist housing.
