Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority is for a contract titled "High Volume Pump Hose," classified under security, fire-fighting, police and defence equipment. The authority, located in Liverpool, England, seeks suppliers for 150mm diameter hoses for high volume water pumping. This process, valued at £886,567, uses a call-off method from a dynamic purchasing system and covers the goods segment of procurement. The award stage was completed with an active status, and the contract is scheduled to begin on 16 February 2026, running until 15 February 2027. The tender period concluded on 24 December 2025, with the award notice published on 11 February 2026.

This procurement presents business growth opportunities in the defence equipment sector, especially for suppliers experienced in manufacturing specialised hoses. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are registered and have the capability to fulfill the requirements swiftly and efficiently would be ideal candidates. As the process follows a selective procurement method, suitable businesses should ensure they are registered within the relevant dynamic purchasing system to be considered for future call-offs by the Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority. The awarded supplier, Mandals AS, exemplifies the kind of agile and specialised entity that can succeed in this procurement environment.
