04CCTV and alarm contracts: common questions
How many CCTV and alarm tenders are live in the North West?
4 right now, from 4 public buyers, with 1 closing in the next 14 days. We bring together notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder and refresh this page every hour.
What do buyers ask for in CCTV and alarm contracts?
Few notices state a minimum turnover; it is usually set out in the tender documents. The accreditation or registration named most often is BS 8484:2016 or BS EN 50518:2019 (Alarm Receiving Centre). Most requirements sit in the tender documents rather than the notice, so check the pack before you bid.
Can a small business win CCTV and alarm contracts?
Often, yes. 2 of the 4 live tenders in the North West are marked by the buyer as suitable for small businesses, and 1 is a framework or dynamic purchasing system (approved supplier lists that buyers then order from). Smaller lots and lower-value contracts are usually the best place to start. Check the minimum turnover and insurance first, as those are the checks that rule most bids out.
05Expert notes: Security & fire
Guarding contracts usually require SIA-licensed staff and often SIA Approved Contractor status. For CCTV, alarms and fire systems, buyers commonly look for NSI or SSAIB approval, or BAFE for fire. Check these early: they take months to get.
