Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned fire and carbon monoxide detection upgrade works across approximately 60 council-owned residential properties in Hampshire. The requirement covers site visits to record the make, model, expiry date and room location of existing smoke, heat and carbon monoxide detectors, with a photograph and report for each detector provided to the Council’s project officer. Where required, the contractor must install replacement or additional battery-operated detection. The site surveys are also intended to establish what is needed for a possible later phase upgrading existing battery detection to mains-powered, hard-wired interlinked systems. The work is classified as electrical installation and is relevant to contractors experienced in residential detection systems, inspection, installation and compliance records.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective, below-threshold route under a framework agreement. It was not run as a competitive call-off. One lot was awarded to Anchor Pipework Limited. The contract was signed on 26 August 2026 and runs from 7 September 2026 to 11 December 2026. Its value is £122,549 excluding VAT, or £147,059 including VAT. The contract is active and the award remains active. The published information does not set out separate quality, price or technical weightings; the stated route is an award under a framework. The selected supplier is an SME. The requirement therefore provides a clear example of Hampshire County Council buying property-based detection surveying and installation through a framework route at below-threshold value.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible competitor would need to organise site visits across a dispersed residential property portfolio, inspect smoke, heat and carbon monoxide detectors accurately, and capture consistent asset data. The required records include make, model, expiry date, room location and a photograph for every detector, so reliable field teams and quality-controlled reporting are central capabilities. Suppliers should also be able to install battery-operated replacement or additional detection where surveys identify a need, and assess property conditions relevant to later mains-powered, hard-wired interlinked systems. Experience in domestic electrical installation, fire and carbon monoxide detection, survey logistics and evidence-based handover would be directly relevant to Hampshire County Council’s demand.
