## Summary

The Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is currently seeking tenders for the supply and installation of three electrically powered washing machines at its facilities in Bedford, Kempston, and Dunstable. This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified under washing machines (CPV code: 42716120). The tender is actively open with a submission deadline set for 12 May 2017. The total value of the contract is £22,000, with a minimum value of £15,000. Interested suppliers are encouraged to assess the installation and de-installation requirements across several sites, including Toddington, Dunstable, Stopsley, Leighton Buzzard, and Luton, where existing machines must also be removed.
