Summary of the contracting process

The Humberside Fire & Rescue Service has successfully completed a tender for self-contained breathing apparatus designed for firefighting, situated in Yorkshire and the Humber, UK. The contracting authority, based in Hull, updated the award notice on 6th May 2025, following an earlier award date of 21st August 2024. The procurement had a substantial budget of £1,900,000 and entailed the inclusion of additional ancillary equipment and a comprehensive service and maintenance package. This procurement pertains to the "goods" category and falls within the specific CPV code for breathing apparatus, with the contract extending from 1st September 2024 to 31st August 2034. Although the method of procurement was not specified, the procurement process was initiated as a tender.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for growth in the firefighting equipment industry, particularly benefiting suppliers specialising in breathing apparatus and firefighting communications systems. Businesses with capabilities in delivering integrated training and maintenance programmes for such specialised equipment would find this procurement process well-suited to their offerings. The awarded contract was given to MSA (Britain) Ltd, an SME known for its expertise in safety equipment, indicating that companies with similar competencies could leverage such opportunities for expansion in public safety and firefighting sectors. Collaboration with entities like the Devon & Somerset Fire and Rescue Service, as referenced, could also position businesses strategically for future tenders within the framework agreement.
