## Summary

Torbay Council procured works to upgrade the fire alarm system and visual aid devices at White Rock Primary School. The requirement covers fire-alarm system installation work, including the associated equipment and installation activity needed to improve the school’s fire detection and visual warning arrangements. Delivery is in the White Rock area of Torbay, Devon. This is a public-sector building works opportunity for fire and security contractors able to undertake school fire-alarm upgrades, install compatible visual alarm devices and complete associated works in an occupied education setting. The council is the buyer and public authority responsible for the requirement. The awarded supplier was Fullstop Fire & Security Ltd, an SME based in Exeter, indicating a requirement suited to a specialist regional fire and security installation business.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Torbay Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One completed lot was awarded to Fullstop Fire & Security Ltd. The award is active. The contract was signed on 4 June 2026 and runs from 22 July 2026 to 3 September 2026. Its value is £48,848.05 excluding VAT, or £58,617.66 including VAT. The award concerns works for fire-alarm system installation. The process was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contract is active, with the procurement recorded as below threshold. This outcome identifies the council’s chosen route for this requirement and the scale of the awarded school fire-alarm upgrade.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Torbay Council for specialist fire and security works in primary schools, focused on upgrading fire alarms and visual warning devices. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical experience in fire-alarm installation and upgrade projects, including integrating visual alarm equipment with existing school systems. It would need the technical competence, qualified installation staff, testing and commissioning capability, and understanding of safety requirements needed to deliver reliable protection in an education environment. Exeter-based delivery also suggests value in regional coverage across Torbay and Devon, with enough capacity to manage a defined school upgrade programme. Suppliers should be able to undertake public-sector works under a direct-award route where the requirement remains below the relevant threshold.
