Summary of the contracting process

Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service (DWFRS) is conducting a tender for the "Prevention, Protection and Operational Risk" project, classified under the software and information systems category. The procurement process, initiated as an open tender, aims to secure a Prevention, Protection and Operational Risk Software System to ensure compliance with fire service reporting requirements. The tender was opened on January 6, 2022, and submissions are due by February 16, 2022. The contract period is projected to begin on March 24, 2022, lasting for an initial two years with the possibility of extending it twice for two additional years if deemed necessary. The total estimated value of the contract is £300,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for software companies, particularly those specialising in compliance and administration software solutions. Businesses that offer ready-made systems capable of adapting to emergency service needs and can efficiently support DWFRS's mandatory reporting requirements will be well-positioned to compete. The ability to provide both on-premises and cloud-based solutions may appeal to DWFRS’s operational preferences, making this an attractive opportunity for firms with expertise in delivering scalable, customisable software solutions tailored to the unique needs of fire and rescue services.
