THIS PROJECT HAS NOW BEEN AWARDED TO:
MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS UK LIMITED
AWARD: 2023/S 000-035325
Hertfordshire County Council (hereinafter referred to as the 'Council') is seeking to procure a resilient, futureproofed mobilising solution to the Fire Control Collaboration which enables Fire and Rescue services to provide a high-quality response individually and collectively to incidents protecting lives and property. This solution should also be responsive to emerging technologies and act as a driver to continued service improvement.
Background
The Fire Control Collaboration (F C C) is a partnership of two Fire and Rescue Services ( Hertfordshire and Norfolk) which has been established to deliver a technologically advanced and resilient control room function across the partner services and provide the opportunity for efficiencies.
There are currently two member organisations:
- Hertfordshire Fire and Rescue Service - covers the full county of Hertfordshire. The Service Headquarters is located in Hertford whilst the Training Fire Control Centre is located in Stevenage. It is administered by a Fire Authority which is an internal part of Hertfordshire County Council.
- Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service - falls under Norfolk County Council and covers the full county of Norfolk with a Headquarters in Wymondham
The Partnership currently functions as follows:
- A common technical and communications infrastructure, (including supporting software solutions)
- A common rationalised mobilising system architecture split over two resilient data centres, utilising a single mobilising system, supporting the two Fire and Rescue Services (F R S)
- Fall-back/remote buddying/resilience arrangements
- A Control Room mobilising capability within each F R S to support Service specific 'in-scope' activity and command support
- An enabling framework for common Control Room operating procedures and ways of working to support future mobilising and in-scope activity collaboration
- An enabling framework for opportunities for future convergence of operational practices and 'back office' applications.
The potential lifetime value of this contract would be GBP 4,050,000.00
