## Summary

The Business Fire Safety Training contract has been awarded by the Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Authority in collaboration with the South Wales Fire and Rescue Service. Although initially including North Wales Fire and Rescue Service, they have withdrawn from the process. The contract, awarded to Compass Skills Training Limited, is focused on providing safety training services, such as personal development and technical training, within the fire safety sector. The procurement stage is now at the award phase, following an open procedure. The contract period commenced on 25th March 2026, and will continue until 24th March 2028, with options for extension up to 2031. Key dates in the contracting process include the initiation of the tender in November 2025 and completion of the award process in March 2026. The location for delivery is within the UKL region, and the contract value is significant, amounting to £480,000 GBP.

This tender presents notable opportunities for businesses specialising in fire safety training, particularly those capable of delivering accredited Business Fire Safety Courses. It is an excellent chance for SMEs with expertise in training services to expand their service offerings and enhance their market standing. Companies that bring innovative training methodologies and have the capacity to offer virtual classroom learning will have a competitive advantage. The inclusion of optional specialist courses allows for further tailored business growth. This invitation is particularly suited for businesses that excel in maintaining compliance with current legislation and evolving guidance within safety training domains.
