## Summary

The Department of Finance has initiated a collaborative framework for the maintenance and supply of portable fire-fighting equipment and associated services, distributed across two lots. This procurement process is classified under the industry category of firefighting, rescue, and safety equipment (CPV 35110000) and covers locations within the UK (region UKN). The framework is being executed through an open procedure and includes a 10-day minimum standstill period as per the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The procurement stage is currently active with a contract value estimate of £9,000,000. Key deadlines include the tender end date on 25th November 2024, with bid openings starting on the same day at 15:30. The contracts for Lot 1 valued at £2,750,000 and Lot 2 at £6,250,000 were signed on 3rd February 2025.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply, maintenance, and servicing of fire-fighting and safety equipment. Those specialising in these areas can benefit from potential long-term engagements and stable revenue streams as the framework is renewable and provides a structured monitoring system for contract performance. SMEs, both within and outside the EU, are encouraged to compete, given the open nature of the procurement process and the inclusive policies promoting varied participation. Businesses with robust quality and cost-effective solutions, adhering to the criteria outlined in the tender documents (40% quality, 60% cost), are well-suited to compete for these contracts. This framework can pave the way for entering future public procurement competitions and securing further government contracts.
