Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Supply of Firefighter Foam 3/3" was undertaken by the Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service, located at Fire Brigade Headquarters, Bootle, England. This contract award falls under the industry category of fire suppression foam, classified with CPV code 35111520. The procurement process utilised a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender reached the award stage, with Terberg DTS (UK) Ltd being awarded the contract valued at £70,000. The contract, initiated on 2 June 2025, spans until 24 February 2030 and includes options to extend. The delivery for the project is set to occur in the postal code region of L30 4YD, with the entire procurement process concluding by 7 October 2024.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), given its suitability for such companies. Businesses that specialise in producing fire suppression foam or similar compounds could find this contract particularly relevant. The procurement, executed through a framework agreement, indicates a preference for suppliers familiar with formal call-off procedures. Firms within the fire safety equipment industry that are adept in providing sustainable solutions, specifically fluorine-free fire fighting foam, would be well-positioned to compete and benefit from this opportunity. Leveraging this contract could establish a foothold in long-term government supply chains and enhance a company’s portfolio with signature public sector contracts.
