UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales intends to buy automated external defibrillators (AEDs), including their supply, installation, maintenance, servicing and ongoing support. The equipment and services are for the Commissioner’s premises and operational locations across Wales. This is a goods procurement with associated health and safety support, aimed at keeping defibrillators installed and maintained where South Wales Police operates. The work covers the equipment itself and the continuing service needed to support it; it is not limited to a one-off purchase. The buyer is the Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales.

This is at the planning stage: the buyer has announced an intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to use an open procedure, with one lot. The planned contract is expected to run from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2029, with an annual one-year renewal option and a maximum stated end date of 31 January 2030. The estimated value is £140,000 excluding VAT (£168,000 including VAT). The buyer expects to publish the next notice on 5 November 2026. Its planned evaluation gives 60% to commercial factors and 40% to technical and social factors, divided into 30% technical and 10% social. The lot is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This procurement may suit suppliers able to provide AEDs together with installation, planned maintenance, servicing and continuing support across multiple operational premises. Businesses will need the capacity to manage both the equipment supply and its ongoing upkeep, rather than provide devices alone. The planned technical and social assessment means suppliers should be prepared to explain the quality of their delivery approach and their social contribution, alongside competitive commercial pricing. The buyer has identified a commercial goods basket as the price basis, so suppliers with clear and competitive equipment pricing may be well placed. The lot is designated as suitable for SMEs, making it potentially relevant to smaller suppliers with the necessary reach and service capability, as well as larger providers. No specific accreditations or experience requirements are set out at this planning stage.
