The procurement falls under the category of repair and maintenance services for firefighting equipment (CPV Code 50413200) and is classified as a service contract. The contract will span three years with an additional three-year extension period, commencing on 8 August 2024. The procurement process followed a limited method due to exclusive supplier agreements and has resulted in the award of the contract to Fireworks Fire Protection Ltd, a Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) based in Attleborough.

This tender presents significant business opportunities for firms specialising in mitigation systems and maintenance services. Given the specific requirements and statutory regulations, businesses with expertise in British Standards-compliant maintenance, certification, and reactive repair services will find this contract well-matched to their capabilities. The procurement's limited method, driven by the supplier's exclusivity on essential spare parts, underscores the importance of specialised equipment and technical expertise. Companies in this niche can leverage the contract to establish or enhance their presence in the public safety and security sector, aligning with the Scottish Prison Service's operational needs.
