Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Emergency service vehicles," led by Cleveland Fire Authority, has reached the award stage. This contract involves the supply and build of up to six fire appliances and a prime mover vehicle, specifically targeting the goods industry category. While initially set as a tender process, the procurement method used was limited, awarding the contract directly without a prior call for competition. The procurement was based on a framework specified by the national Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue service. Notably, the location tied to this contract is within the UKC region, with the final contract valued at GBP 2,100,000 and signed on 1 June 2026.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for growth, especially for businesses specialising in emergency vehicles and related apparatus. Suppliers that can provide comprehensive solutions involving vehicle manufacturing and equipment integration are ideal candidates. The project specifically benefits small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Emergency One, an SME based in Ayrshire, which successfully secured the contract. Such businesses can leverage these public procurement opportunities to reinforce their market presence and establish connections with governmental bodies such as the Cleveland Fire Authority.
