Summary of the contracting process

The Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Authority has extended a contract for the maintenance of a Mobilising and Resource Management System. This procurement relates to the goods category within the command, control, communication, and computer systems industry. The award update was made on 26th June 2026, following an active contract status with TELENT COMMUNICATIONS as the supplier. The service covers the UKC region for a period of 90 days.
