The brief

Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service (LFRS) wishes to invite suppliers to obtain information regarding your company and the services you provide.

This information is requested as part of a market engagement exercise in order to seek the market’s views on the supply and delivery of proposed new solutions to manage our services’ pooled PPE.

We would like to also use this exercise to gauge the level of interest in any eventual procurement activity.

Currently the Authority manages c18,000 garments at over 40 stations within the Lancashire and South Cumbria area.

To do this the Authority utilises low frequency tags that are stitched into each garment (such as a tunic), scanners are then used to scan the tags within the garments to update their status and location.

The information from the scanners then feeds into a database and that database is then used to facilitate the management of the services pooled PPE
