## Summary

West Midlands Fire and Rescue Authority is buying maintenance services for its breathing air compressors, used to provide firefighters with breathing air. The work concerns the Authority’s compressor equipment and is categorised as repair and maintenance of air compressors. Delivery is in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. This is a single-lot service requirement, rather than a purchase of new compressors. The Authority is based in Birmingham. The contract is intended to maintain the operational equipment over the agreed service period; the specific maintenance tasks are set out in the procurement documents.

The Authority invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender was published on 21 October 2026. Suppliers could ask questions until 5 November 2026 at 23:59:59 UTC, and offers were due by 27 November 2026 at 17:00 UTC. The contract period is 24 December 2026 to 21 December 2028, with an option, at the Authority’s discretion, to extend for a further two years, to 19 December 2030. The estimated contract value is £90,000 gross. Evaluation is weighted 65% on price, 30% on quality and 5% on social value. The stated selection requirement is an annual turnover of £40,000.

This opportunity is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It is most relevant to suppliers with the technical capability and staff to maintain breathing air compressor equipment for a fire and rescue authority. The turnover threshold indicates a supplier needs an established level of annual business, while the quality and social-value components mean the competition is not decided on price alone. Compressor maintenance and repair experience is directly relevant to the requirement. The procurement information does not state particular qualifications, accreditations, staffing levels or service-response standards, so suppliers should assess their fit against the detailed requirements before preparing an offer.
