## Summary

The procurement process described involves The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire as the buying organisation, overseeing the award of a contract titled "The Provision of Testing, Maintenance, Parts and Training for Airbags" for the Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Authority. This procurement falls under the services and goods categories related to firefighting equipment, with a focus on locations in the United Kingdom, specifically regions UKF24 and UKF25. The process reached the award stage on 5th February 2026, with the contract becoming active from 16th February 2026 until 15th February 2029, having a potential extension up to 15th February 2030. This direct procurement method was executed below threshold without competition, limiting its scope to a singular supplier contract valued at £39,000 excluding VAT.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities primarily for businesses specialising in firefighting, rescue, and safety equipment, including SMEs like Angloco Ltd, which secured the contract. Companies with expertise in maintaining and supplying parts for safety equipment, as well as those offering training programs, could find suitable ventures in such government contracts due to the recurring need for continuous maintenance and periodic training sessions. The partnership with a sub-central public authority, such as Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Authority, solidifies a company's credentials in the public sector, paving the way for potential long-term collaborations and contract extensions.
