Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service has awarded a contract titled "Chemdata" under the CPV classification of "Software package and information systems" (48000000). The procurement process followed was a single tender action (direct method) and it concerns the delivery of goods to the North East region of the United Kingdom. The award was completed on 28th January 2025 with Ricardo AEA Ltd being the supplier. The contract, valued at GBP 40,140, has a contract period spanning from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in the provision of software packages and information systems, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality solutions to governmental bodies. Although this specific contract was awarded through a direct procurement method, businesses that are well-suited to such projects include large-scale software providers with a track record of reliability and niche expertise in public sector requirements. Expanding into contracts with public entities like the Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service can enhance business growth and offer stable, long-term project partnerships. Although not suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, larger firms positioned in the software industry could greatly benefit from opportunities in this sector.
