Mansfield firm on fire with £115,000 contract

Mansfield-based TIS has completed a £115,000 contract to provide a range of security and fire systems to three new primary schools across Lincolnshire, as part of a Government turnaround.

TIS has been working alongside the main contractor GallifordTry, to provide fire safety instalments to three Lincolnshire-based primary schools, The Grange, Great Coates and Burton-Upon-Stather.

The firm designed and installed intruder alarms, CCTV and access control, along with fire alarm systems, disabled refuge, WC alarms and induction loops.

The renovation project was funded through the Government’s Priority School Building Programme (PSBP), which is transforming some of the most run-down schools across the country.

Jake Williams, project manager at TIS, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to be working on this project. The new facilities now mean that we can be safe in the knowledge that the pupils and premises are being protected by our award winning security systems.

“It’s a real achievement for TIS to have been awarded this prestigious contract to provide all the security and access systems for these schools and it is amazing to play a part in this life-changing opportunity This is life-changing for so many children and their education.”
