Notice Information

Notice Title

Undress Uniform and Managed Wardrobe Service

Notice Description

The Authority is seeking quotes for the Provision of Undress Uniform and a fully managed wardrobe and measuring services at the supplier's premises. This will be a call off contract and no commitment to purchasing items. Any new recruits will need to be measured at Theale Head Quarters on their first day to allow 12 weeks to have graduation uniform ready. Whilst the officers need an arrangement where they can have access to an undress uniform, most officers are unlikely to need to use the outfit very often. This means that the outfit could be more effectively provided if this could be provided through a managed service and be made available for use by other RBFRS officers.
