## Summary

The Essex Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner Fire and Rescue Authority has concluded a procurement process titled "K9 vehicle supply and conversion." This process falls under the industry categories for "Equipment for emergency vehicles" and "Motor vehicle conversion services," with the location in the United Kingdom's UKH region. The procurement utilised a selective method as part of the Bluelight Commercial vehicle conversions framework, operating below the threshold. The process has reached the award stage, with the contract set to commence on 1st December 2025 and end on 31st March 2026. The total contract value is £77,270.53, signed on 26th November 2025, reflecting a final stage in the procurement cycle.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), like the awarded supplier Safeguard VP Ltd, may find this an advantageous niche market, providing scope for businesses with capabilities in vehicle equipment fitting and conversion. Companies involved in bespoke vehicle solutions for public emergency services are well-suited to meet similar future procurement requirements in this sector.
