Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council, through its Oxfordshire Fire & Rescue Service (OFRS), has successfully completed an open procedure tender titled "Firefighting Foam Provision, Collection & Disposal". This initiative, classified under CPV code 35111520 for fire suppression foam, was a collaborative effort involving multiple Fire & Rescue Services (FRS) in England, United Kingdom. With the tender period ending on 21 October 2024 and the contract period spanning from 31 January 2025 to 1 February 2030, the procurement sought suppliers for fluorine-free firefighting foam and the collection and disposal of the foam. The contracts for Lots 1 and 2 have been awarded to Angloco Ltd and Terberg DTS (UK) Ltd, respectively, with Lot 3 not awarded. The award process was completed on 30 November 2024, with contracts valued at £90,000.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for suppliers in the fire safety and hazardous waste management sectors. Companies specialising in fire suppression chemicals and those capable of managing hazardous waste disposal could benefit substantially. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) were particularly encouraged to participate, underscoring the potential for smaller businesses to secure government contracts. The collaboration of multiple FRS units implies extended business networks and potential follow-up work within the sector.
