The procurement method used was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The buying organisation decided to extend current arrangements with the existing service provider after no valid tender submissions were received, with the aim of ensuring proper service provision. The procurement process was completed, leading to the award of a new contract provision from 1st April 2019. This tender process presents an opportunity for businesses operating in the public order and safety industry to potentially secure a contract with the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service. The buying organisation, governed by public law, sought to address its insurance and claims handling service needs through a procurement process. Businesses experienced in providing such services and willing to adhere to the procurement method used would be well-suited to compete in this tender process, which reached completion with a contract signed in March 2018. ## Notice SFRS was required to abandon a tender exercise for Insurance and Claims Handling Service in March 2018 as a result of receiving no valid tender submissions from the bids submitted.
