## Summary

The South Wales Fire and Rescue Service, in collaboration with the Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Authority and the North Wales Fire and Rescue Service, has completed an open procurement process for the provision of initial and requalification HAZMAT and Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) courses. The contract, classified under CPV code 80000000 for general public services, was awarded to GREEN RISK ASSESSMENT LTD, a supplier based in Gloucester. The procurement, valued at £200,000, covers the delivery of services across the region of Wales (UKL), with the contract having been signed on 1st April 2025. The procurement stage is marked as complete and was conducted under the open procedure method, adhering to the legal basis set out by Directive 32014L0024.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in training and skill development within emergency services, particularly those with expertise in hazardous materials and radiation protection. Companies capable of delivering comprehensive training programmes that include initial courses, requalification courses, and scenario-based skill development days would find this contract beneficial for business growth. Given the scale of operations required across multiple fire and rescue services, larger enterprises or consortia with substantial resources and expertise in this niche would be well-suited to compete in similar future procurements.

## Notice

In collaboration with Mid and West Wales Fire & Rescue Service (MAWWFRS) and North Wales Fire & Rescue Service (NWFRS), South Wales Fire & Rescue Service (SWFRS) are looking for a supplier to provide initial courses, re-qualification courses and scenario-based maintenance of skills days to our HAZMAT and Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) officers. Delegates from other UK Fire and Rescue Services may also attend the courses as and when required.
