## Summary

Sanctuary Housing Association procured the installation of warden call systems and associated works. The requirement falls within telecommunications equipment maintenance services (CPV 50330000) and covers services delivered in the United Kingdom. Warden call systems are typically used to support communication and safety within housing, so the work is relevant to contractors that install, maintain or integrate resident communication and alarm equipment. The scope is a service requirement rather than a supply-only purchase, with associated installation works included. The buying organisation is Sanctuary Housing Association, based in Worcester. The selected supplier, ABCA Systems Limited, is a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that the requirement is accessible to businesses of similar scale.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to ABCA Systems Limited on 17 March 2026. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement; the award description states that it was made by direct award under the EEM0037 framework for door entry, access control, CCTV and warden call installation and maintenance. The tender submission deadline was 14 January 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The estimated procurement value is between £8 million and £14 million, with the awarded value stated as £14 million; the award records these values as estimates. The initial contract period runs from 5 April 2026 to 4 April 2029, with two optional 12-month extensions.

This award shows sustained demand from Sanctuary Housing Association for contractors able to install and maintain warden call systems across UK housing services, alongside related door entry, access control and CCTV capability covered by the framework route. A credible future competitor would need practical installation capacity, telecommunications and low-voltage systems expertise, and the ability to provide reliable maintenance and associated works at housing-provider scale. Experience integrating resident communication, access and safety systems would be relevant, as would the operational capacity to support a substantial, multi-year requirement. The successful supplier is an SME, so businesses of similar size can regard this as evidence that specialist smaller firms can compete for this type of work.
