UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Humberside Fire & Rescue Service procured Level 3 fire safety training courses for delivery in England. The requirement covers up to 20 courses, intended to provide advanced fire safety training. This is a specialist training-services contract rather than a purchase of equipment or fire and rescue operational services. The buyer is the fire and rescue service for the Humberside area; the recorded delivery location is England. The courses are the full scope identified for this procurement, grouped within a single lot. The requirement gives relevant providers a clear indication of the buyer’s demand for Level 3 fire safety training and the type of service it purchases.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to WFST Ltd. Humberside Fire & Rescue Service used a below-threshold limited competition. The single lot was completed, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 10 September 2026 and runs from 11 September 2026 to 31 August 2028, a 24-month period. Its value is £16,050 excluding VAT and £19,260 including VAT. The requirement was for up to 20 Level 3 Fire Safety Courses. The published procurement data does not state a separate evaluation basis or specific eligibility conditions. The award is for safety training services, with delivery recorded in England.

For suppliers who did not win, this award is evidence that Humberside Fire & Rescue Service buys specialist Level 3 fire safety training, with a requirement of up to 20 courses delivered over a two-year contract. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to provide training at Level 3 and to deliver multiple courses for a public fire and rescue service. The buyer used a limited competition for this below-threshold purchase, so relevant suppliers should be prepared to compete through a restricted process rather than assume an open tender route. WFST Ltd, the selected supplier, is recorded as an SME, showing that a small business can win this type of training contract.
