## Notice

During a recent Health and Safety inspection, it was identified that the current fire alarm system situated at the Client's Mountsorrel based Highways Depot is not fit for purpose. This has resulted in a requirement to design, provide, install commission and set to work a BS5839 Fire alarm System Category L2 and remove all old fire alarm equipment made redundant by the new installation. The current intermediate system is less than satisfactory and as such the works are required promptly to ensure the resolution to this issue as defined within the timescales of this tender document, Scope & conditions of contract.
