Description

Cleveland Fire Brigade are inviting expressions of interest from suitably qualified providers that are capable of providing operational resource management software.

This is a unique opportunity for the Brigade to implement a software system that will transform the way decisions are made with regard to deploying and managing operational resources.

The outcomes arising from the deployment of this software system will;

- Improve operational response times.
- Minimise risk.
- Optimise fire cover.
- Demonstrate Data driven evidence based decisions.
- Display a robust management of resources.
- Evidence efficient & effective resource use.
- Play back historical situations for audit and inquiry purposes.
- Improve resilience.
- Demonstrate how HMICFRS requirements are achieved.

The solution must be able to provide a live mapped display of the location and status of resources to assist Fire Control officers/Duty Officers to identify the optimum 'backup' or 'standby' moves of operational assets.
The solution must also assist staffing officers to determine optimum appliance configuration/availability utilising quantitative and data driven evidence based information, plan deployments for upcoming days/shifts and playback historical cover positions.

The overall aim of this expression of interest is to:

1. Allow the supply market visibility of the proposed/future opportunity;
2. Support Cleveland Fire Brigades informed decision making on the future commissioning of this requirement and overall procurement approach;
3. To gauge the level of interest from the supply market of capable providers.

If you wish to express your interest, please email lwoodall@clevelandfire.gov.uk with your organisations details as well as your capability and experience in delivering a similar operational resource management solution.

The deadline for expressions of interest responses is by 12pm on Friday 21st June 2019.

**It should be noted that this is a market testing excercise and does not commit Cleveland Fire Briagde to carry out a procurement process**
