Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the supply of rescue stretchers has been completed under the award stage, with the contracting authority being the Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority. The procurement was targeted towards the "security, fire-fighting, police, and defence equipment" industry category. The required goods, titled "Supply of Rescue Stretchers," were sourced using a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition, reflecting specific emergency needs. The contract was awarded on the 29th of April 2025, with a total value of £42,187.50. The location for the procurement was within the United Kingdom, specifically in the region labelled UKD73, Bootle. This process is part of the Framework Call-Off with the procurement falling outside the directive's scope of application, ensuring rapid and efficient supply to the Merseyside area.

This tender creates significant opportunities for suppliers specialising in security and emergency response equipment, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Businesses with expertise in manufacturing and logistics of safety and rescue equipment would be well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in the future. Companies like Sure Line Limited, based in Kings Lynn, have successfully captured this contract, highlighting the benefits of fostering relationships with regional and local authorities such as the Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority. Firms engaged in the provision of specialised equipment should consider monitoring and engaging with such projects to support their business growth within public safety domains.
