This active tender falls under the construction industry category and is classified as an open procurement method. The deadline for submissions is 10 July 2017, and the contract is expected to commence on 14 August 2017, lasting until 3 November 2017. The total estimated value of the contract is £230,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in fire alarm systems, especially those experienced with installations in Grade 2 listed public buildings and performance spaces. Companies that focus on advanced fire detection technology, including wireless systems and integration with existing security frameworks, would be well-positioned to compete. The engagement with asbestos specialists also suggests potential collaboration opportunities for firms within that field, enhancing the overall safety and compliance of the project. ## Notice The aim of the project is to entirely replace the fire alarm system at City Hall, Hull, and to extend and upgrade the system category to L1, all in accordance with BS5839-1.

The new system shall feature 72hr external battery back-up, a front-end software management programme, a number of mains-voltage interface requirements, a key-operated input for the end-user to override multi-detector settings and a dial-out and paging facility. The system shall be linked to the building's intruder alarm system and, via a Dual-com interface, communicate (relevant) alarms to Hull City Council's alarm receiving center (ARC) Civic 1. The contractor will price the scheme based on a general aim to use wireless technology throughout.
