UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Warwickshire County Council, acting as the buying organisation, has concluded the tender process for the "WAR - Safe Working at Height Equipment" contract, aimed at supplying specialised equipment for the Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically for firefighting, rescue, and safety equipment, and involves a single supplier approach. Located in Warwickshire, UKG13, the process used a limited procurement method suitable for below-threshold competitions. The procurement stage has been completed, with the contract awarded in early 2026 and active from 4th February 2026 through to 3rd April 2026.

This tender presents business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specialising in safety and rescue equipment, as the contract targets vendors capable of supplying complete sets of working-at-height equipment. Companies with expertise in manufacturing harnesses, anchor devices, and related safety accessories are particularly well-suited to compete for such opportunities. Given the nature and scale of the tender, it represents substantial potential for businesses in the niche market of safety equipment tailored to emergency services.
