The RFTV will be designed and built to simulate high rise buildings in London and will enable firefighters to experience and extinguish real fires (carbonaceous) in a realistic, but safe and controlled environment. The Authority is seeking a carbonaceous RFTV involving real fire and smoke created by burning standard sized timber materials in fixed and mobile cribs with the option to investigate the burning of other agreed materials such as straw. The Authority is not seeking Consultants / suppliers who can only provide an LPG / gas based fire system (although LPG / gas may be required for the associated systems subject to the design of the Consultant). This appointment shall comprise of Design Services through RIBA Stages 2 and 3. The Authority seeks to novate the RFTV Specialist to a main contractor from RIBA Stage 4. Work carried out at any further stage will be subject to a separate contract and is out of the scope of this requirement. ## CPV classification Training simulators Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/62da66c3-1519-4698-9db3-4da4a056ca58) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
