This contract, specifically focused on firefighting, rescue, and safety equipment, falls under the industry category of goods. The process culminated in an award on 4th June 2026. The procurement method was limited due to it being below the threshold for extended competition. The geographic focus of the delivery extends to the East of England (region code UKH3). The contract is valued at £38,210.40, covering the period from 6th April 2026 to 30th June 2026. The winning supplier, Respirex International Ltd, is based in Redhill, United Kingdom.
