What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) currently operates 3 Operations Control (OC) located in Dundee, Edinburgh and Johnstone. Each OC operates with a mobilising system (CAD – Computer Aided Dispatch), telephony and radio systems (ICCS – Integrated Communications Control System), interconnected to various networks and ultimately to Station End Kit which notifies crews when they are required to attend incidents. These networks also allow telephony to connect to the Operations Control Room and Airwave Radio to facilitate incident ground communication. Following the award of contract to new contractor it was intended to switch off legacy CAD and ICCS provision when the new contract provision went live. The new contract was recently terminated before the solution could be implemented. As a result, there is a need for the SFRS to maintain current service provision for all three OC's with existing legacy service providers to ensure the continuation of service provision in the interim period until a new mobilising system can be procured and fully implemented

Why no open competition

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons

Published justification

The SFRS was established by the Police and Fire Reform Act (Scotland) 2012 (the Act) and replaced the previous eight legacy services, each of whom operated their own independent Operations Controls (OC’s).
