The resulting contract, which may extend to 7 December 2025, is divided into three Lots: Lot 1 for stabilisation strut systems, Lot 2 for stabilisation block systems, and Lot 3 for air lifting bags. Contractors are encouraged to submit proposals for one or more of the Lots from a delivery address that includes various regions such as the United Kingdom and its overseas territories. This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in emergency response equipment and automotive safety technologies. Suppliers of stabilisation and lifting solutions, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with innovative products, are well-positioned to compete in this procurement process. By successfully securing a contract, businesses can not only contribute to public safety but also expand their market presence within the fire and rescue sector. The open procedure allows for a competitive bidding environment, enhancing the potential for advantageous partnerships and increased sales within this essential industry. ## Notice Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service has a requirement for stabilisation and lifting equipment, primarily, to provide frontline crews with suitable equipment to stabilise cars and other light vehicles that have been involved in Road Traffic Collisions. This will involve vehicles on all four wheels and vehicles on their side, their roof or any other configuration, including incidents involving multiple vehicles. In order to undertake extrication activities and ensure firefighter and public safety it may be necessary to stabilise fabric/structures, machinery or vehicles to prevent further movement to create, as far as practicable, a safe working environment for fire fighters and other emergency workers and to prevent further injury to an entrapped casualty. The requirements are presented in three Lots: Lot 1 stabilisation strut system Lot 2 stabilisation block systems Lot 3 air lifting bags. Contractors may bid for one, two or all Lots.
