Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Fire and Rescue Service bought station-end equipment for its fire and rescue operations: station-mobilising encoders, pagers, transmitters and power supply units. The equipment supports the alerting and mobilisation of fire service stations and personnel. The requirement was for a range of products, with the specific models and technical requirements set out in the procurement specification. Delivery is in Scotland. Scotland Excel conducted the procurement on the Service’s behalf, but the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service is the buyer and contract holder. This is a supply requirement for specialist communications and paging equipment, rather than a general technology or installation contract.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Telent Technology Services Limited. The contract value is £214,581.25. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and is recorded as active; no contract period or end date is stated. The buyer used an open procedure to make a call-off through Lot 4e, Paging and Alerting, of the Government Commercial Agency’s Network Services 3 framework. The requirement was one lot, with no option for additional purchases recorded. One bid was received. The contract award date is not separately recorded; the signing date is given above. The opportunity was for an accredited supplier, and technical product requirements were detailed in the specification.

This award demonstrates a defined Scottish Fire and Rescue Service requirement for specialist station alerting and mobilisation equipment, including encoders, pagers, transmitters and power supply units. Suppliers competing when this requirement next returns to market would need to be accredited for the relevant framework route and able to supply equipment that meets detailed technical specifications. Credibility will depend on a suitable product range across the station-end equipment categories, and the ability to meet the operational requirements of a fire and rescue service. The procurement was a framework call-off rather than an open market purchase, so framework access and compliance with its terms are important to reaching this buyer. One bid was received, indicating that a supplier able to meet the accreditation and equipment requirements was selected through this route.
