## Summary

Nottinghamshire and City of Nottingham Fire Authority procured a firefighter availability planning and rostering solution for Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. The requirement concerns software and associated computing provision for planning when firefighters are available and organising their operational rosters. Delivery is for the Nottinghamshire area, supporting the fire and rescue service serving Nottinghamshire and Nottingham. The buying authority is a regional public-sector fire authority, while Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is identified as the review body. The procurement is classified as goods, although the practical requirement is a specialist digital solution rather than general office equipment. It was arranged as a single requirement for the fire and rescue service, with no additional options recorded.

The procurement has reached completion and an active award was made to FireServiceRota B.V., an SME based in Amstelveen, Netherlands. The contract was signed on 10 August 2026 for £260,538. The authority used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition, relying on the GCloud 14 framework. One bid was recorded. The award was evaluated on price. The requirement was treated as a procurement under the Government Procurement Agreement and used the legal route for an award outside the applicable directive scope. The tender was arranged as one lot for the Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service solution. The award remains active; the lot itself is recorded as cancelled.

This procurement indicates demand from a fire and rescue authority for specialist software that plans firefighter availability and manages operational rostering. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would need a proven product designed around retained or on-call firefighter availability, shift planning and roster management, with the capability to support a public fire and rescue service in the Nottinghamshire area. A credible competitor would also need to understand public-sector implementation, service support, data handling and integration requirements, while demonstrating that its solution can be delivered through an established government cloud framework or comparable public procurement route. The recorded award to an SME shows that a specialist technology provider, rather than only a large systems integrator, can satisfy this type of requirement.
