New £62.7m Interim Measures Alarm Fund — Now Open for Applications

The Waking Watch Replacement Fund closed 31st March 2026. The Government has replaced it with the new £62.7 million Interim Measures Alarm Fund (IMAF), running until 2035. If your building still has waking watch, Sysco can survey your building and provide the Competent Person documentation required for your application within 48 hours.

A Decade of Protecting the Square Mile's Commercial Premises

The City of London demands more than a standard fire alarm contractor. High-occupancy office towers, Grade I and II listed buildings, live trading floors and luxury retail — each presents its own compliance challenge and zero tolerance for disruption.

Sysco Fire & Security has been part of the City's safety infrastructure for over a decade. We understand the specific compliance pressures faced by facility managers, property managers and building owners in EC1, EC2, EC3 and EC4. Every system we install is designed to BS 5839-1 standard, fully documented and certified on the day of commissioning.

Whether you manage a single commercial floor in a Bishopsgate tower or a multi-tenanted building near St Paul's, we bring the same senior-level expertise and full accountability to every project.
