This procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 9 February 2018. The total contract value is estimated at £500,000, covering a duration from 2 April 2018 to 3 April 2022. The procurement method is an open procedure, allowing any interested party to submit a bid. This tender presents significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in maintenance and installation services for fire safety equipment. Given the university's considerable previous annual expenditure of approximately £125,000 for similar services—potentially increasing due to upcoming campus renovations—qualified contractors that can meet the demanding safety standards and offer competitive pricing will be well-positioned to grow their business through this contract. Firms with expertise in emergency lighting and fire alarm systems, as well as those equipped to handle reactive and preventative maintenance tasks, are particularly encouraged to participate. ## Notice The University is required to carry out servicing and testing of fire safety systems in all buildings under their control. The University is looking to appoint a suitably qualified competent contractor to carry out the servicing and testing of fire alarms, emergency lighting, disabled refuge points and kitchen fire suppression systems to ensure the systems are operational and make any recommendations for repairs; depending on the scope of the repairs, these may be subject to a separate quotation/tender exercise. The main Preston Campus of the University Estate consists of circa 50 buildings and is approximately 150,000m2. Note: This contract is not limited to Preston Campus. The main contract will be inclusive of the quarterly planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and identified remedial repair works of all identified equipment; in addition to PPM the contract will incorporate additional works requirements, including reactive maintenance, installations and one-off project works up to a maximum value of PS50k nett. Previous annual contract spend for these disciplines (planned and reactive maintenance only) has been in the region of PS125k Gross, we anticipate this may rise due to our planned extensive campus remodelling (see http://www.uclan.ac.uk/about_us/uclan_masterplan.php for more details). Note: This figure relates to servicing and reactive works only, and given as a guide only; due to the nature of this work we cannot guarantee future spend. 'Small' and 'Minor' Works projects will be in addition to the estimated amount stated.
