Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service is seeking support services through the award of the PROCAD Support Agreement. This contract, classified under Computer Support Services (CPV 72610000), is specifically for the period from 1st April 2021 to 31st March 2022, with an active status. The procurement method used for this agreement was limited, allowing for a negotiated process without prior publication of a call for competition, justified by exclusive rights under Regulation 32.2(b)(iii) which applies to the selected supplier, Motorola Solutions Ltd. The contract was signed on 10th March 2021 and is valued at £338,064.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the IT service sector, particularly those specialising in computer support services and software solutions. However, due to the exclusive rights held by Motorola Solutions Ltd for the ProCAD software, only firms that can demonstrate a unique capability to deliver similar services or those with the required intellectual property may be able to compete. Businesses looking to expand in such competition should focus on building strong relationships with public service bodies and ensuring compliance with any specific service delivery standards.
