UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire involves the award dated 17th December 2025 for the provision of dosimeters and survey meter testing, classified under goods and services. Babcock International Group has been chosen as the supplier for this call-off contract, which commenced on 24th November 2025 and is set to conclude on 23rd November 2027, with a potential extension to November 2028. Located within Northamptonshire and Leicestershire regions, this procurement falls under the direct method, below the threshold without competition, and is valued at £22,000 excluding VAT. Although the contract was signed on 23rd November 2025, the Authority holds no obligation to expend the full contractual amount.

Businesses operating within the industrial equipment sector, particularly those producing meters and dosimeters, may find this tender process insightful for uncovering growth opportunities. The direct procurement method without competition might suggest that established suppliers with a proven track record, much like Babcock International Group, are better positioned to secure such contracts. This could signal potential opportunities for partnerships or service provisions supporting public authorities such as the Northamptonshire Fire & Rescue Authority in the UK regions. As the contract features a year-long renewal option post-completion, suppliers positioned with timely product delivery and reliable service maintenance might optimise this opportunity for sustained business growth.
