Opportunity overview
The Authority needed a second-hand vehicle to meet the requirement for a Water Rescue Vehicle. The vehicle's requirements mean it requires a special build and is very hard to come by, with a long lead time. CoTrim submitted the lowest-priced quotation and was considered the most advantageous option. CoTrim met the Authority's specifications and provided the best price. The waiver is for the coach build of the original 4x4 vehicle purchased for Water Rescue. The special requirements of the coach-build include a bulkhead, crew lining, cargo lining, power, internal lighting, emergency lighting, and CCTV around the vehicle. The other requirements include side access, seats and covers, roof vent, rear step and towbar, which are normal in a van. The van will be painted red in line with Fire Rescue Vehicle colours. As a result of Co-Trim owning the vehicle and releasing it after modification, the supply or service is unique to a single supplier such as proprietary or patented goods and is deemed necessary due to the requirements of operational alignment and there is no satisfactory alternative.
