| BACKGROUND: |
Fire-Rescue Personal Protective Equipment PPE, “Bunker Gear”, or “Turnout Gear” is a protective clothing ensemble used to protect firefighters in environments that are immediately dangerous to life and health. Bunker Gear is comprised of an Outer Shell, Thermal Insulation, and Moisture Barrier that provide protection from hazardous conditions. Since most line-of-duty deaths occur from exhaustion, it is a top priority to provide protective clothing that limits weight, allows adequate range of motion, and fits each individual firefighter.
Specifications for PD 18-19.109, Escambia County Public Safety-Fire Rescue purchase of bunker gear was posted on Vendor Registry beginning September 30, 2019. This solicitation was issued to 62 registrants in Vendor Registry representing 45 firms, 28 firms viewed the solicitation and 19 firms downloaded the solicitation. Five bid responses were received on October 30, 2019 at 2:00 PM CDT. |
