This will ensure that our facilities remain safe, functional, and fit for purpose, supporting the delivery of critical emergency services across the region. The Authority operates 83 fire stations and a number of other office/training premises throughout the counties of Devon and Somerset. A mix of building condition and M&E condition surveys are required across all premises. Detailed volumes are available within the accessible tender pack. Commencement is anticipated in July 2026 with completion of the surveys and reporting as soon as possible thereafter during 2026.
