## Summary

The public procurement process for the "Fire Fighter Service Delivery Instructor Training" was managed by the Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Authority, located at Service Headquarters, Nissan Way, Tyne and Wear, United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the industry category of specialist and technical training services. Initially, the tender was active and attracted interest through an open competition method, suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, and was categorised as below threshold. The original tender stage had an enquiry deadline set for 12th September 2025, with a submission deadline on 18th September 2025. However, the process was later terminated, as indicated by the tender cancellation notice dated 2nd December 2025, following a commercial decision affecting related lots.

This procurement opportunity was targeted towards training providers capable of delivering high-quality, specialised instructor training which could greatly contribute to business growth for those in the educational services sector, particularly SMEs. The courses aimed at enhancing the skills of Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service trainers, included four lots focusing on Compartment Fire Behaviour, Breathing Apparatus, Road Traffic Collision, and Tactical Ventilation instruction. Although the tender was cancelled, similar future opportunities could provide substantial growth potential for businesses that specialise in fire safety and emergency response training, aligning with quality-focused, price-competitive criteria. Engaging in such contracts can help businesses expand their footprint in public sector service delivery and contribute to community safety and resilience efforts.
