Summary of the contracting process

West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority is seeking the supply and installation of operational kit storage lockers at approximately 30 fire stations across West Yorkshire. The requirement is for around 650 steel lockers, with delivery and installation phased across the programme. This is a goods contract that also requires installation work. The detailed scope and technical requirements are set out in the procurement package. The opportunity is aimed at suppliers able to provide suitable steel storage lockers and install them across a distributed network of fire stations in the region.

The authority invited tenders through an open procedure. The procurement reached the tender stage, when suppliers were invited to submit offers. The enquiry deadline was 25 November 2026 at 23:59, and the tender submission deadline was 1 December 2026 at 12:00. The buyer expected to conclude the award process by 18 December 2026 at 23:59. The contract period runs from 18 January 2027 to 17 January 2030, with phased supply and installation over three years. The estimated value is £250,000 excluding VAT (£300,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation gives quality a 70% weighting and cost 30%.

This opportunity may suit small and medium-sized businesses, which the buyer has identified as suitable participants. Suppliers will need the capability to source or manufacture steel lockers and manage installation across approximately 30 fire stations, coordinating phased delivery over a multi-year programme. Experience in commercial storage products, site installation and scheduling work across multiple locations would be relevant to the requirement. Tenderers should be prepared to address the technical specification and detailed scope included in the procurement package, and to demonstrate a strong quality response: quality carries substantially more evaluation weight than price. The work combines goods supply with installation, so bidders with both capabilities, or with dependable delivery and installation partners, are well placed to respond. The tender may be submitted in English and electronically.
