Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This contract is highly specialised and requires proven accreditation as a fire investigation trainer and assessor, plus deep knowledge of UK fire service competency frameworks. Most small businesses outside the emergency services training sector will not hold the necessary qualifications or delivery experience.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
