Summary of the contracting process

Cornwall Council has successfully concluded the procurement process under the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) Framework Agreement for emergency response vehicles, specifically targeting medium pumping appliances. This contract, which was initiated as a tender and is now in the 'Award' stage, results in the supply of up to nine vehicles, covering locations such as the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, and the UK. The process was completed on 15th June 2025, with the contract term stretching from 16th June 2025 to 15th June 2045. The procurement adheres to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and was valued at £3,032,010 GBP, promising significant opportunities within the firefighting vehicle sector.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in the manufacturing and supply of firefighting vehicles, particularly those focusing on medium-sized pumping appliances. As Cornwall Council targets small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for such tenders, companies fitting this profile, like Emergency One (UK) Limited, which secured the contract, stand to gain from these provisions. The long contract duration offers sustained business prospects, fostering growth within the emergency vehicle supply chain. Companies with a strategic interest in public sector contracts or an established presence in the specified territories should actively consider engaging with similar tenders in the future.
