## Summary

Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council is buying self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) for Doncaster Sheffield Airport Fire & Rescue Service. The requirement covers the supply of SCBA equipment for new recruits, together with ongoing servicing and maintenance by the supplier. It is a goods procurement in the firefighting, rescue and safety equipment category (CPV 35110000), delivered in Doncaster. This combines equipment supply with continuing technical support, so the relevant market includes suppliers able to provide suitable breathing apparatus and maintain it for an emergency service. The stated purpose is to equip the airport fire and rescue service, including its new recruits.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Dräger Medical UK Limited. The award was made on 3 August 2026, following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract runs from 24 August 2026 to 23 August 2027. Its awarded value is £93,650. The tender deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12:00. The requirement is presented as one combined supply and support package, rather than separate lots. The published information does not state the award evaluation criteria, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be described. The tender was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This award demonstrates a requirement for a supplier that can provide self-contained breathing apparatus for an airport fire and rescue service and support the equipment after delivery. To compete credibly when this specific requirement next comes to market, a supplier would need the capacity to equip both existing operations and new recruits, and to deliver servicing and maintenance throughout the contract. The framework call-off route also indicates that suppliers need to be positioned to compete through the relevant framework, rather than relying on an open standalone tender. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, and the selected supplier is itself identified as an SME, showing that this scale and combination of supply and support can be delivered by a smaller business. The award provides a concrete reference point for the buyer’s SCBA requirement.»}
