Senseco Awarded NHS Framework.
Healthcare Applications Guide
 |
Senseco are pleased to announce after a detailed application and review process we have been successful in becoming NHS Shared Business Services Framework Agreement Suppliers. This means any NHS or Government Authority can engage with us directly knowing we have met all of the stringent requirements. This will minimise the need for Pre Qualifications Questionnaires and show they are working within regulatory guidelines they need to follow with an approved company.
Becoming an NHS Framework supplier is particularly important as we have a long history of working on NHS / Healthcare premises, this further shows our commitment to the sector. We have also produced a Hospital / Healthcare Applications Guide.
Hospital and Healthcare Applications Guide
Hospitals require reliable fire and security systems and competent companies to install and maintain them to ensure they remain operational and compliant.
Senseco Systems have a wealth of experience in the hospital and healthcare sector. We have maintained, installed and upgraded many fire systems in hospitals with minimal disruption to patients, staff and operations. We even offer site-based engineers to deal with any critical issues, as well as carrying out ongoing maintenance.
Minimising false alarms
False alarms can be disruptive, costly and lead to complacency in the event of a real fire. In a hospital environment there are added challenges of disruption to operations, patients, and the risks of moving them.
We can advise on a range of measures to reduce false alarms and even offer systems where we guarantee against them with our FAITH (False Alarm Immune TecHnology) guarantee. Click here for more information

Keeping people safe
Systems need to keep staff and patients safe, and allow for safe movement of patients or evacuation. There are specific standards to meet for fire doors linked to fire systems, and escape routes must have smoke detection, be well lit and protected from fire.
We provide compliant BS7273-4 fire systems, the standard for door release mechanisms. Our intelligent emergency lighting systems are constantly monitored and tested to ensure they operate when you really need them, and we provide sprinkler and water mist systems to ensure evacuation routes are protected from fire and are safe.
Systems visibility across your site
Most hospitals are spread over multiple buildings, so control room visibility across the whole site is critical.
We offer computer graphics packages that connect to different systems in different buildings, so everything is shown in a consistent format. We also offer a range of systems that can give notification of fire events to selected users’ mobile phones.
Compliance and competence
Fire Legislation means the building owner or employer is responsible for carrying out a Fire Risk Assessment and employing competent persons / companies to install and maintain fire systems. Using an accredited / certificated company demonstrates you comply with the legal requirements.
Senseco are LPS1014 certificated to design, install, commission, and maintain fire systems. Our sprinkler division are LPS1048 certificated, and our gas suppression division are certificated to LPS1204.
Flexible maintenance with minimal disruption
It is important that any maintenance regime fully tests the systems installed with minimal disruption to patients and the operation of the hospital. Many hospitals also have a mix of different systems, old and new to be maintained. As an independent company we can support a wide range of systems and provide detailed service records for compliance and reassurance.
We can offer maintenance packages with periodic visits or site based engineers.
