## Summary

The Chelmsford City Council is seeking experienced suppliers for the installation and commissioning of a new hard-wired fire alarm system at its Civic Centre Offices and the Civic and Cramphorn Theatres in Chelmsford, United Kingdom. The procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract awarded on 1st August 2019, amounting to £242,300. The contract period spans from 12th August 2019 to 30th May 2020. Prospective contractors were required to attend pre-scheduled site visits on 25th and 27th February, as attendance was essential for consideration in the tender process and guided by the open procurement method employed.
