## Summary

The Home Office is conducting a procurement process titled "Evacuation Evidence Review," aimed at researching fire evacuation policies in apartment blocks. This initiative falls under the industry category of 'Research and development consultancy services' and is located in London, England. The procurement method employed is selective, with the tender period set to conclude on 28 February 2020. The contract is expected to start on 23 March 2020 and run until 23 September 2020, with a value ranging from £30,000 to £50,000. Interested suppliers must register with the Crown Commercial Service: Research Marketplace Dynamic Purchasing System RM6018 to participate.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), specialising in research and consultancy services related to fire safety and emergency management. Companies equipped with expertise in human behaviour during evacuations or fire safety consulting are well-suited to compete for this contract, which aims to enhance the understanding of evacuation processes and effectiveness in high-risk environments.

## Notice

The Home Office is seeking to externally commission a fast-paced piece of research that will help in understanding fire evacuation policies in apartment blocks. The fire and rescue analysis programme is looking to appoint a supplier (or suppliers) to undertake this research. The review will seek to assess the evidence on the most effective methods of evacuating apartment blocks. However, based on scoping conducted by the Home Office it is understood that there is likely to be limited evidence on effectiveness per se, the review should also consider how occupants and firefighters behave and make decisions about evacuation in fires. To access this opportunity suppliers will need to be registered on the Crown Commercial Service: Research Marketplace Dynamic Purchasing System RM6018.
