Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service has completed the awarding of a contract for the installation of electric vehicle (EV) charging points at two key locations: the Service Headquarters in Sunderland and the Technical Services Centre in Gateshead. The procurement process falls under the industry category of chargers, according to the CPV classification scheme. This contract has been awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement, specifically via the ESPO Framework for Vehicle Charging Infrastructure. The contract award took place on the 8th of August 2025 and covers the period from that date through to the 7th of August 2026, valuing at £59,530.

The procurement of EV charging points presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in electric vehicle infrastructure, particularly smaller enterprises (SMEs) specialising in fast AC charging technology. As the procurement favoured a selective method, businesses familiar with framework agreements are particularly well-suited to engage. The contract aligns with increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly transport solutions, and companies in the sector stand to enhance their market presence and contribute to regional sustainability initiatives by participating in similar projects.
