Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service is currently in the planning stage for a tender titled "Dynamic Cover Management Tool". This project falls under the industry category of software for risk management and incident coordination. The engagement end date is set for 22nd October 2020, with the location based in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. The procurement method is through early engagement with the market, seeking off-the-shelf software solutions that are already utilised by other fire and rescue authorities or emergency services.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in industry-specific software solutions, particularly those offering real-time operating systems and resource optimisation tools. SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete, as the South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service explicitly seeks established products rather than custom-developed options. Companies that can demonstrate their software's capability to enhance risk management and resource coordination would greatly benefit from this procurement opportunity.
