## Summary

The public procurement process for the replacement fireground radios has concluded with the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Authority, a part of Hampshire County Council, successfully awarding the contract. This tender, focused on services within the radio equipment category, contributes to upgrading breathing apparatus radio communications in compliance with the Grenfell Tower Inquiry phase 2 recommendations. The procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period spans from 31st March 2026 to 31st March 2031, with delivery expected in the South West region of the United Kingdom. Notably, the award was made on 29th January 2026 to Radiocoms Systems Limited, valued at £775,000.

This tender provides valuable opportunities for businesses in the radio equipment industry, particularly SMEs that specialise in creating robust communication solutions for emergency services. Given the focus on enhancing fireground radio communications, businesses with expertise in innovative and resilient technology that can integrate with existing systems would be well-suited for such competitive contracts. Engaging in these opportunities can help businesses expand their portfolio and increase their presence within the public sector, particularly in critical service areas like fire and rescue.

## Notice

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Authority (the Authority) are undertaking several procurements to replace Breathing Apparatus (BA) kit (BA Replacement Project). The Authority have already completed the procurement of the masks and cylinders (previous project HF27106) and have now identified that the introduction of wired radio communications will significantly contribute to a more robust and resilient breathing apparatus radio communications connectivity. Additionally, there are requirements on the Authority as a Service to be compliant with the latest set of recommendations from the Grenfell Tower Inquiry phase 2 report, referencing radio communications on the fireground and in BA operations. This project will ensure our compliance with these requirements.
