Over the coming months, Kent Fire and Rescue Service would like to share with Industry our pipeline of potential contract opportunities across each of our category areas. The Authority spends on average £18m per annum on third party goods and services across the categories.
Our Commercial and Procurement Team focus on Professional Services, Fleet, Facilities Management and Construction, Operational Equipment, Information Communications Technology (ICT) and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Clothing and is fully focussed on delivering its Procurement Strategy that is committed to open, transparent and fair procurement and contracting processes. The Authority appreciates the dynamic nature of today’s global markets, and the impacts and pressure that this has had and will continue to have on all supply chains. It is therefore more important than ever that we work together with Industry to enable forward planning, through open engagement.
