## Summary

The procurement process for the "Fire and Rescue Service Pumping Appliance" was conducted by the Royal Berkshire Fire & Rescue Service and has reached the award stage, with the contract being active as of 5th February 2025. This tender focused on the supply of Type B Fire Appliances, commonly known as fire engines, within the category of firefighting vehicles. The procurement was managed collaboratively by the Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service and employed a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract is set to commence on 25th November 2024 and will run until 24th November 2030, with the delivery location specified at RG31 7SD in Reading, England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating in the manufacturing of firefighting vehicles, particularly those that can engage in framework agreements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are deemed suitable for this procurement, offering a substantial growth avenue for companies like Emergency One (UK) Ltd, which was awarded the contract valued at £4,000,000. Businesses with capabilities in producing emergency response vehicles and those interested in supply chain participation in similar future contracts across multiple fire and rescue services would be well-positioned to compete effectively.
