Security Building Improvements - Design

The security of the site and some of its buildings is very important, the Institute spends some £350k pa on security to protect its staff, visitors, contractors and the Institute’s work. This tender is for a design and build project to improve the security of various containment laboratoies / buildings. These laboratory areas will require hardening to provide a minimum 15 minute delay level. Safety obligations are especially important and we would like a comprehensive ‘Operational Requirement’ process undertaken for all works to ensure compliance to all safety and security requirements.

The works will include either or both of the following:

• 1.Design
• Full design of the physical security measures required for the whole periphery of the laboratory or building, including door-sets, substrates, vents, locks, glazing, walls and ceilings, these must be certified to LPS 1175 Security Rating 4 (minimum).
• Full design of electronic security measures of these areas, including CCTV, Access Control and Intruder detection, to integrate with existing systems.
• 2.Supply and Build
• Supply and installation of the physical and electronic security design above.
