About
Staffordshire Police awarded a contract to Respirex International Limited for the provision of gas tight suits for Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service.
The exemption was signed off as Respirex was the only supplier able to meet the current specification in use at SFRS, and changing the specification could have implications for firefighter protection and training requirements.
No existing framework for gas tight suits was identified, and other fire and rescue services across the country use the same supplier.
No formal contract is in place; individual orders will be placed with the supplier, and the contract end date is the date the exemption covers.
The estimated contract value is £50,000, with a range of £45,000 to £52,000.
