The procurement process followed an open procedure method, allowing multiple businesses to submit bids electronically, with the tender submission deadline being 27th November 2025. The procurement was part of a comprehensive service contract critical to maintaining compliance with statutory regulations, involving the installation and repair of systems like Gent fire alarms, Milestone CCTV, and Paxton door controls. With a total contract value of £250,000, Bell Fire & Security Ltd, an SME from Glasgow, was awarded the contract on 6th January 2026, underscoring the university's commitment to operational resilience and staff, student, and visitor safety. This tender represents an excellent opportunity for SMEs specialising in maintenance, security, and safety systems to engage with the education sector, offering potential for business growth through long-term partnerships. Businesses equipped to deliver high-quality technical services, alongside competitive pricing, would be particularly well-suited to participate in similar tenders. Additionally, the requirement for community benefits provides avenues for companies to enhance their community engagement initiatives, such as offering local employment opportunities, apprenticeships, and engagement with educational groups, thus bolstering their corporate social responsibility profile while contributing to local community development in Dundee. ## Notice Abertay University is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced supplier to deliver a comprehensive range of fire and security systems and maintenance services across its estate.
