## Summary

AVON FIRE & RESCUE SERVICE has concluded a public procurement process for the purchase, servicing, and maintenance of Paratech Struts and Smoke Curtains. The tender, awarded to VIMPEX LIMITED, fell under the Emergency and security equipment category (CPV code: 35100000), with additional classification under Individual and support equipment (CPV code: 35800000). The procurement stage of this process is the Award stage, and the tender period ended on 9th March 2025. The total contract value is £30,000, covering the period from 10th March 2025 to 9th March 2029, with delivery scheduled to the postal address BS20 8JJ in Bristol, England. This was a selective procurement conducted through a call-off from a framework agreement.

Large-scale suppliers with the ability to meet the demands of long-term contracts will find this tender especially suitable, ensuring consistent business engagement until 2029. The procurement was not designed for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), indicating a focus on the capacity and expertise of larger companies. Businesses capable of fulfilling these needs stand to benefit from sustained revenue and the potential for extended partnership with AVON FIRE & RESCUE SERVICE.
