## Summary

Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Combined Fire Authority is planning to procure a Vehicle Telematics System, currently in the planning stage, aiming to improve service efficiency and compliance. The procurement process, in the industry category of services for telematics systems and database software, focuses on connecting with suppliers for market research. It seeks a cloud-based SaaS solution and hardware installation, extending over regions in Leicestershire. Suppliers are encouraged to submit questionnaires by 16 January 2026 to express interest and demonstrate their product capabilities, leading potentially to a three-year contract starting from 1 April 2026, with possible extensions, under UK legislation 2023/54.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in telematics systems, database software, and packaged software programming services, with emphasis on supplying secure cloud solutions and hardware. Potential providers should demonstrate track records in service delivery and technical solutions, aligning with the Authority's ICT Strategy, offering 4G connectivity and compatibility with Azure Entra ID. Companies providing innovative solutions with user-friendly interfaces, advanced security models, and data integration capabilities would be well-suited to participate. The procurement process encourages collaboration, offering a competitive edge in a vital market for enhancing public authority operations and compliance.

## Notice

This preliminary market engagement notice has been issued by Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Combined Fire Authority also known as Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service (LFRS). The purpose of this preliminary market engagement is for LFRS to connect with suppliers of Vehicle Telematics System that are currently available on the market. We invite interest from suppliers to provide product information and engage in demonstrations of how their existing solutions will meet our present and future requirements. LFRS are seeking to: * Develop the Authority's requirements and approach to the possible procurement of a Vehicle Telematics System. * Identify suppliers that may be able to supply the services required. * Build capacity among suppliers in relation to the contract being awarded. This is not a call for competition and failure to participate will not exclude any providers from any future tender process, nor does this notice guarantee that any future tender will take place. No providers will be either advantaged or disadvantaged by participating and any resulting tender will be advertised on the appropriate electronic platform/s for all to view. Any contract would be expected to be awarded to a single supplier. The Contract Term would be for an initial period of three years with the option to extend by up to two 12-month extension periods (The maximum term of the contract being five years). Estimated dates provided within the Find a Tender notice are based on earliest possible dates to award a contract. It is anticipated that the system implementation will run concurrently with the existing hardware and software as a phased migration. It is vital that LFRS work with a viable and credible supplier who has the track record, and professional discretion to deliver the required solution and services that will enable LFRS to meet its current and future goals and business needs.

### Planning Information

LFRS wishes to undertake market research and engage with suppliers that can demonstrate their existing product capabilities against our objectives for one or both Lots.

• A commercially off the shelf system that enables us to continuously drive the efficiency of our processes and maintain 100% compliance with legislation and regulation throughout its lifetime.
• In line with our ICT Strategy, a "Cloud-based" software as a service (SAAS) solution, which must provide secure access to all users to perform activities via a web-based user interface from any location across a range of platforms such as LFRS-provided PC, Android/IOS Tablet or Smartphone.
• An advanced security model including Single Sign On and Multifactor Authentication with user identification and management delivered via our Azure Entra ID.
• Ability to supply and consume data to and from our Data Warehouse via supported API's, e.g.: Vehicle data from our Workshops Management System via our Data Warehouse, Performance data to our Data Warehouse.
