Description

Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Authority (on behalf of the National Fire Chiefs Council Transport Officers Group (NFCC TOG) and in conjunction with the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) Procurement Hub, is leading a procurement project to replace the existing Framework Agreement for UK Fire and Rescue Emergency Response Vehicles (ERV). The future framework agreement will enable Contracting Authorities named on the framework to procure Pumping Appliances, Aerial Appliances and Special Vehicles as required by their Contracting Authority, Fire and Rescue Service etc. For the purposes of this planned procurement notice, previously a preliminary market engagement was carried out under the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The PIN notice for that engagement can be found via the link below: https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/748a1220-2203-4418-b562-1d8091... After the preliminary market engagement notice, a pipeline notice has been published under the Procurement Act 2023. The Project Team are currently establishing the requirements and the permitted vehicles that can be procured, and this information will be published within the Invitation to Tender later this year. At this stage, the Project Team anticipates that the NFCC Emergency Response Vehicle Framework will be an open framework, as defined in the Procurement Act 2023, for a period of 8 years (the contract start and end dates in this preliminary market engagement notice are based on this assumption). No extensions to the framework will be available.
