What counts as an alarm contract?
Alarm tenders cover intruder and burglar alarm systems, alarm monitoring services and alarm receiving centres (ARCs), along with the smoke alarm and lone worker alarm supply and servicing contracts that councils and housing associations run under the same alarm heading. Fire detection and suppression work that is not tied to an alarm system is a separate category.
Where are alarm contracts advertised?
Stotles brings together alarm tenders and contracts from 100+ portals into one search, so you do not have to check each portal separately, and you can set alerts for new opportunities across the UK and Ireland.
If you want to search the government portals directly, Find a Tender carries higher-value contracts across the UK and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts in England. Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, Ireland's eTenders covers Irish public bodies, and many councils, NHS bodies and housing associations publish on their own e-tendering portals such as ProContract. Telecare and alarm receiving centre services are often called off from frameworks such as ESPO's technology enabled care framework and Scotland Excel's alarm receiving centre framework.
How do you win alarm contracts?
Alarm tenders are scored on price, response and call handling times, servicing arrangements and accreditation. Most contracts cover servicing and monitoring of existing systems, so reliability and response matter as much as installation price.
What do you need to bid for alarm contracts?
Alarm installers are usually expected to hold NSI or SSAIB approval and work to BS EN 50131, and alarm receiving centres to BS EN 50518. Tenders usually set minimum insurance cover, check financial standing and ask for evidence of similar contracts at selection stage. Under the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers can be excluded for certain criminal convictions, insolvency or failure to pay tax.
Who buys alarm systems and monitoring contracts?
Councils, housing associations, NHS trusts, police and fire services, and universities run the bulk of alarm tenders, typically for intruder alarm servicing, alarm receiving centre monitoring, or smoke alarm replacement across a housing stock.
How long do alarm service and monitoring contracts run?
Most alarm contracts run one to three years, with monitoring and PPM frameworks stretching to four years on some awards. Short call-off or one-off installation work can run a few months.
How do I find alarm contracts before they are formally tendered?
Read building safety and security programmes, risk assessments, servicing cycles and expiry dates for existing contracts, which show alarm work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the buyers behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.
Which CPV codes cover UK alarm tenders?
The most common codes are 79711000 (Alarm-monitoring services), 35121700 (Alarm systems), 31625000 (Burglar and fire alarms), 31625300 (Burglar-alarm systems), 45312200 (Burglar-alarm system installation work) and 50610000 (Repair and maintenance services of security equipment). Buyers often combine several of these under one servicing or monitoring contract.
