The Networked Fire Safety Partnership (NFSP) have appointed Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Authority to conduct a market engagement exercise looking at Command and Control solutions prior to going out to tender. This will enable The Authority to identity the optimum method of delivering the services and achieving key strategic objectives. The NFSP comprises the following organisations: Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Authority, Dorset & Wiltshire Fire & Rescue Authority and Hampshire & Isle of White Fire & Rescue Authority. This Early Engagement Notice is to invite suppliers to be part of the supplier engagement for this procurement. The estimated value of the contract will be provided in the Contract Notice. It is estimated that the Contract Notice (call for competition) will be published in October 2022. The Command and Control Solution includes two key elements: (1) Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and (2) Integrated Communications Control System (ICCS).

The Authorities are seeking to view current ICCS and CAD systems available and ask for interest from the market to attend a supplier day to demonstrate how their solutions will meet our current and future requirements. It is anticipated that the contract will be awarded by the middle of 2023 for an initial term of 5 years with the option to extend for a further 5 years, such extension to be in either 12 or 24 month blocks.
