Otamatea High School has a number of different fire alarm types throughout the various school blocks.
In recent construction projects (for specific school blocks), where the project required Building Consent, any required upgrade to the fire system has included a new connection to the MX1 Main Panel. However, many of the older school buildings still have stand-alone systems or the type 1 school bell system.

This RFT is for a Main Contractor to design and construct the required upgrades to the Fire Alarm and Bell System (including obtaining Building Consent):
o New Type 3 alarm system for Anc 9, Blk 10
o New Type 4 alarm system for Anc 3, Blk 8, Blk 11, Gym Change, P Blk, F Blk, Whare
o Upgrade from Type 1 to New Type 4 system for Gym, E Blk, M Blk
o Existing Type 4 systems in Blocks A, B, C, D, G, K and Y are to be checked for functionality and compliance and remedied where necessary.
o Blocks A and Y existing Type 4 fire alarm system to be modified by way of the decommissioning of the existing local fire alarm panel at Blk Y, and connection to the new site wide fire alarm panel in M Blk.
o The works include new underground cabling in the locations indicated in the 22 Degrees Proposed Site Fire Protection Layout plan.
o The works include new cabling to be run overhead (in the covered walkways) in the locations indicated in the 22 Degrees Proposed Site Fire Protection Layout plan.
o Integrated school-wide School Bell/Alert System
