The contracting process, dated 14th August 2025, utilised a direct procurement method, specifically executed below threshold without competition. The awarded contract involves Executive Security Locksmiths Limited, who possess exclusive access to the proprietary lock system being replaced.

## Notice

Oxford Brookes University is awarding a contract to Executive Security for the replacement of a small number of failing locks in student accommodation. This is a limited, urgent intervention rather than an estate-wide change. Executive Security, the incumbent supplier, has the necessary expertise and exclusive access to the proprietary system in use. They can reprogramme existing key fobs to work with the new locks, avoiding the need to issue replacements and ensuring minimal disruption for residents while maintaining system security. As the current locks are no longer manufactured, timely replacement is essential. Executive Security can carry out the work immediately, avoiding delays and additional costs associated with procuring new fobs or conducting a wider procurement exercise. Their appointment provides a practical, cost-effective, and efficient solution to an immediate operational issue
