BMS Installation in London
Alpha Controls installs building management systems across London — new-build M&E packages, single plant room retrofits, and multi-floor upgrade programmes. We work with M&E contractors, FM teams, and building owners on commercial offices, retail premises, hospitality venues, data centres, NHS and healthcare facilities, education buildings, and mixed-use developments. Our primary installation platform is Trend IQ4, with Distech Controls and Siemens Desigo available where specified.
BMS installation is not just a wiring exercise. The quality of an installation is determined by how well the commissioning phase is planned, how the I/O schedule is verified, and whether the control sequences are tested against real operating conditions before the building is handed over. We build each installation to BSRIA BG8 and CIBSE Commissioning Code M requirements, with a signed point-by-point test record and full handover documentation that a facilities manager can actually use.
For new-build projects in London, we work from M&E design packages and integrate with the principal contractor's programme. For retrofit and upgrade projects, we carry out a full system survey before the design is finalised — identifying reusable infrastructure, confirming cable routes, and reviewing the existing I/O schedule against the new control strategy.

Get in TouchFrequently Asked Questions
Do you install BMS systems for M&E contractors in London?
Yes — a significant proportion of our installation work is as a specialist subcontractor to M&E contractors on new-build and major refurbishment projects in London. We provide competitive prices, clear programmes, and the commissioning documentation that the main contractor needs for handover.
How long does a BMS installation typically take?
For a single plant room retrofit, typically one to three weeks from start to signed commissioning. For a multi-floor new-build BMS package, the programme depends on the M&E construction sequence — we work to whatever phased handover programme the project requires.
Do you install BMS in occupied buildings?
Yes. The majority of our retrofit work in London is in occupied buildings. We coordinate with facilities teams around operational constraints, restricted access hours, and phased works programmes to minimise disruption.
