Dear Hall, Christine,

Thank you for your general response.

In relation to your specific response -

"Our current service provider is FIA qualified"

This was not the question, the question was does your existing supplier meet your own criteria, that being are they a BAFE registered company, not if they have personally done an FIA, the two are quite different.

I have checked the BAFE website & do not find them listed as a registered company, please confirm if your existing contractor "south west fire alarms" are BAFE registered as per your minimum requirements.

Yours sincerely,

Brian Rogers

Dear Hall, Christine,

Thank you for your reply, which does not provide the information I require.

Please answer my question -

"does your University have its fire alarm systems tested, inspected & maintained by a BAFE accredited company, if so please provide their BAFE registration number"

Yours sincerely,

Brian Rogers
