## Summary

The South Lanarkshire Council is seeking to award a contract for the Service, Maintenance and Repair of Closed Protocol Fire and Intruder Alarms, classified under repair and maintenance services. The procurement process has been completed following a limited negotiation procedure due to the technical nature of the systems involved. This contract was signed on 22 April 2022, with an active status and a total value of £298,990, covering a term of three years with a potential two-year extension based on performance. The services are required throughout South Lanarkshire, with specific emphasis on systems originally installed by Stanley Security Solutions Ltd, necessitating their direct involvement in the maintenance and repairs due to the closed protocol nature of the alarms.

This procurement opportunity presents a significant chance for businesses with expertise in closed protocol alarm systems, particularly those capable of delivering similar maintenance contracts. Companies proficient in fire and security services may find this tender appealing, especially those willing to work collaboratively with Stanley Security Solutions for subcontracting opportunities. As the contract specifically restricts servicing and repairs to qualified engineers from Stanley due to the unique technical requirements, businesses that maintain a close relationship or partnership with this supplier could enhance their competitive stance in future procurement processes.

## Notice

There are 13 closed protocol intruder alarms and one fire alarm within Council and SLLC properties throughout the South Lanarkshire area which were installed by Stanley Security Solutions Ltd (Stanley) as a result of an architect's design, when the properties were built. The Council therefore require to procure a contract with Stanley Security Solutions to undertake all inspections, routine servicing and monitoring, maintenance, repair and / or replacement of parts identified during maintenance visits; call outs to reset the systems or to repair as necessary to ensure the satisfactory operation of the intruder systems within those properties. The works comprise a service and maintenance contract covering two service visits per annum and emergency call outs for repair work or resetting the system subsequent to an activation including false alarms and break-ins.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The procurement of the contract was undertaken via Negotiated Tendering Procedure which can be justified under Regulation 33(1) of The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 for the following reason:- The services can only be supplied by a particular contractor because competition is absent for technical reasons and no alternative or substitute exists, and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement. The 13 closed protocol intruder alarms and the one fire alarm installed within Council and SLLC properties throughout South Lanarkshire by Stanley are 'closed protocol' systems. The intruder alarms and fire alarms are stand-alone systems where the device manufacturer produces all the devices and control panels for the complete network and there is no compatibility with any other manufacturer's components. Therefore, the closed protocol intruder alarms can only be serviced, maintained, and repaired by qualified engineers from Stanley Security Solutions. Additional information: The contract being awarded is for 3 years with an optional extension of up to 2 years subject to satisfactory performance, financial standing and availability of funding.
