• a Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) for the purpose of identifying, proposing and mobilising appropriately skilled and equipped resources to incidents, and recording and managing the progression of incidents;

• and Station End Equipment for the purpose of alerting crews/personnel from the CAD to respond to incidents.

The objective of the collaboration will be to provide high quality, resilient response to incidents, protecting lives and property throughout Lincolnshire and Humberside.

The procurement is expected to begin October 2023, and this notice is initially to seek expressions of interest from economic operators.

The Council invites suppliers to express their interest in this opportunity via the Pro-Contract DueNorth portal no later than 1st September 2023. Suppliers who express an interest in this PIN may be asked to participate in further market engagement activities and may also be asked to complete a premarket engagement questionnaire, which will be published at a later date in the Pro-Contract tender box.
