2026 Liquefied Petroleum Gas(LPG)Tank for Devizes Training Centre
Authority: Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority (Police & fire)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionDorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service require the design, installation and commissioning of Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) storage tanks, together with the ongoing supply of LPG fuel.
- No preliminary market engagement: The contracting authority did not publish a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice because the market engagement discussions were undertaken during January 2025 as an integrated element of a wider, historic project scope. Furthermore, the progression of this specific requirement remained strictly contingent on obtaining statutory planning permission. Publishing a contemporary PME Notice would not accurately reflect the current procurement timeline or market conditions."
