Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Merseyside Fire Authority, acting as the buying organisation, has completed the procurement process titled "BA Spares & Maintenance," with an award dated 12 February 2026. This contract pertains to the supply of firefighting equipment, specifically self-contained breathing apparatus and associated equipment, alongside disposal services. Falling under the goods category, the procurement process utilised a limited method without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was awarded to Draeger Safety UK Ltd, with the delivery slated for the UKD7 region, emphasising continuity of supply over a one-year period. This process was carried out under the legal basis of directive 32014L0024, reflecting the procurement's classification as a regional or local authority initiative.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in manufacturing or distributing firefighting equipment and safety gear, particularly those with established expertise in goods supply and disposal services. As Draeger Safety UK Ltd is a large-scale supplier, businesses of similar or substantial capacity would be well-suited to compete for these types of contracts in the future. The procurement method's rationale highlights the demand for consistency in supply, potentially offering reliable business growth for firms that can ensure uninterrupted service. Additionally, firms familiar with working under directives that fall outside normal competitive scopes would find this type of direct award intriguing.
