Overview
Fire-fighters in the UK wear high visibility surcoats over their personal protective equipment (PPE). The surcoat design should aid breathability to reduce heat exhaustion through dehydration.
Fire and Rescue Services (FRS’s) use a range of different colours and role names to distinguish between the different roles being carried out on the incident ground. National Operational Guidance (NOG), the foundation of Incident Command gives clear identification of command roles.
Through the establishment of this framework agreement over fifty UK FRS’s will have the capability to place direct call off orders with the winning bidder(s). A directory listing potential Fire and Rescue customers can be located on the Chief Fire Officers Association (CFOA) homepage. link http://www.cfoa.org.uk/frs?alpha.
