It encompassed West Lothian locations, including various sites such as domestic flats and communal stairs. The contract was pursued through a restricted procedure, a selective procurement method, with the award phase completed and the contract signed on 10th March 2026, valued at £67,969.80. The previous tender phase ended on 27th February 2026, highlighting the systematic evaluation by issuing invitations to tender (ITT) to selected contractors. The review and mediation bodies involved were Livingston Sheriff Court and RICS, respectively. This tender presents substantial opportunities for business growth for firms specialising in fire safety and security systems.
