Title attributed to the contract: Framework Agreement for Gas Detection Monitors
Description:
West Midlands Fire and Rescue Authority (the Authority) are establishing a framework agreement for the supply of Gas Detection Monitors and associated products for a period of four years. The framework could be accessed by UK Fire and Rescue Services, Ambulance Trusts and Police Forces (and their successors) through direct call off orders. This single-supplier Framework Agreement is for the supply of Gas Detection Monitors and Associate Products to include but not limited to single channel monitors to detect Oxygen or Hydrogen Cyanide, four channel monitors to detect Explosive environments (LEL), Oxygen, Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen Sulphide and five channel monitors to detect Explosive environments (LEL), Oxygen, Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen Sulphide and Hydrogen Cyanide. In addition to the call-off orders that will be placed over the four year framework period there are initial requirements identified in the tender documentation that would be ordered immediately upon award. The Framework Agreement will not be divided into “Lots” due to the desire for all three Emergency Services to standardise specifications thereby utilising the same training and operational methods. Economic Operators must be experienced in this field and be able to demonstrate their technical competence. Economic Operators should also have or be prepared to obtain £5m public and £5m products liability, £5m employer’s liability and be able to prove their financial stability. Economic Operators that cannot meet the requested turnover of £1,700,000 must be able to provide a guarantee from either a parent company or bank, failure to demonstrate this will result in a bid being rejected. Contract award is expected to be February 2018 with a go live date of 1st March 2018 (subject to contract signing). Economic Operators are asked to carefully consider whether they can meet the mandatory requirements and whether they could potentially provide an ongoing supply of gas monitors.
