When this comes round again

Greater Manchester Combined Authority publishes Security, Defence & Safety Equipment work continuously — 19 notices, roughly one every 52 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

40% of Greater Manchester Combined Authority’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

The brief

Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service is required by law to ensure Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) worn by operational fire fighters is fit for purpose, to enable them to perform their duties, and maintained to an appropriate standard in line with the Personal Protective Equipment Regulations 2022 (PPE Regulations) (as amended from time to time).

As such, Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA), on behalf of Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS), seeks to procure a modern, interoperable Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) solution, including: • Breathing apparatus sets • Telemetry-based Entry Control Boards (ECB) • Associated ancillary and support equipment
