This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on fire alarm systems as classified by CPV code 31625200. The tender, initially published on 5th January 2021, was active until 3rd February 2021, with the contract expected to commence on 22nd February 2021 and last until 21st February 2022. The project has an estimated value of £70,000 and requires integration of existing fire alarm systems to enhance safety measures for vulnerable residents over the age of 55. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in fire safety systems and services, particularly those with experience in system integration and installation for vulnerable populations. Companies with a proven track record in fire alarm system upgrades, particularly those familiar with BS5839 compliance, will be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Such projects can facilitate growth by establishing long-term relationships with housing authorities, contributing to community safety, and meeting critical safety standards that directly impact tenant welfare. ## Notice Elizabeth House is owned by EMH Homes and is a Sheltered Housing Scheme containing 47 Flats for over 55's. Therefore, there is a degree of vulnerability and an increase requirement for active fire protection. The scheme has an onsite coordinator who works Weekdays (COVID may have altered hours on site) and has an onsite office. There is also a smaller scheme on the same site called Windsor House. This also, houses over 55's and is managed by the same coordinator. There is no common area or onsite office to this block. There is a BS5839-1 L1 fire alarm system on site, this is currently a standalone system, independent to Elizabeth connected by zone monitors and needs to be part of the same system for full fire and fault monitoring. As part of the upgrade a repeater panel needs to be installed linked and integrated to Elizabeth House. It is also imperative that front communal doors on both schemes are linked into the fire alarm panel and failsafe open on the activation of the fire alarm. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b3fb9b16-698c-4e03-a4d0-1a22d9c9ed98 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Other - | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Feb 2021 | | Submission deadline | 3 Feb 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Feb 2021 | | Contract period | 22 Feb 2021 - 31 Mar 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £70,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £65,500 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | EAST MIDLANDS HOUSING GROUP | | Locality | COALVILLE | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE67 4JP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | North West Leicestershire | | Electoral ward | Coalville West | | Westminster constituency | North West Leicestershire | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | INDEPENDENT TESTING COMPANY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 31 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting ### Codes - 31625200 - Fire-alarm systems ## Release History - 18 Feb 2021 at 14:23 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b3fb9b16-698c-4e03-a4d0-1a22d9c9ed98 - 18 Feb 2021 at 14:22 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8c587ed7-0357-4414-b677-102068a7e599 - 5 Jan 2021 at 11:09 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ab074907-55a4-47f0-a684-fa81bf234aec ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b3fb9b16-698c-4e03-a4d0-1a22d9c9ed98 18th February 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8c587ed7-0357-4414-b677-102068a7e599 18th February 2021 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ab074907-55a4-47f0-a684-fa81bf234aec 5th January 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.emhgroup.org.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
