East Sussex Fire Authority (the Authority) seeks a long term partner to provide its IT services.

The Authority serves an area of 179,000 hectares from 24 fire stations across East Sussex, supported by a Headquarters in Eastbourne, a joint control centre in Haywards Heath, a training centre in Maresfield, and three engineering workshops attached to stations. Our Information Management Department of 15 current staff manages over 1000 devices, and fields more than 600 service calls per month.
