The requirement covers: -Fire ground radios -Remote Speaker microphone -Handheld battery and chargers -Radio cases and pouch -Vehicle mounted units -Portable repeater units -General items The volumes of each product type are detailed in the specification, but broadly the requirement is for 400 radio units. Background The Fire and Rescue function is delivered from West Sussex County Council (who are the contracting entity). Fire ground radios are carried on fire appliances as well as Flexi Duty System (FDS) vehicles and other support units such as Incident Command Units.
