Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Falmouth Exeter Plus is seeking one contractor to provide active fire safety systems maintenance services across its university campuses at Woodlane in Falmouth and Treliever Road in Penryn. The requirement covers the inspection, servicing and maintenance of fire alarm systems, firefighting equipment, fire extinguishers, fire suppression systems, fire blankets and other fire-protection equipment. This is a facilities and specialist fire-safety maintenance contract for education sites, with the contractor responsible for delivering the service across both named campuses. The main category is repair and maintenance of firefighting equipment (CPV 50413200), with related requirements covering alarms, extinguishers, suppression systems and associated fire-protection equipment.

The procurement has reached tender: Falmouth Exeter Plus invited offers through an open procedure. It is arranged as one lot and seeks a single contractor. Bids were due by 12:00 on 16 October 2026, when bids were also scheduled to be opened and the award period was due to begin. The initial contract period is 36 months, with the option to extend by two further 12-month periods by agreement between both parties. Submissions may be electronic or written, must be in English, and bids must remain valid for 90 days. Alternative bids are not allowed. The procedure is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This opportunity suits a specialist fire-protection maintenance contractor able to provide a broad, integrated service rather than a supplier focused on one equipment type. Relevant capability includes maintaining fire alarm systems, extinguishers, firefighting equipment, fire suppression systems, fire blankets and other active fire-safety installations. Suppliers should be able to organise and deliver planned maintenance and related services across university campuses in Falmouth and Penryn, coordinating work across separate sites while providing a consistent service through one contracting organisation. Businesses with established experience in fire-safety systems maintenance for complex education or comparable multi-building environments are likely to be well placed to compete, particularly where they can cover the full range of equipment in the requirement.
