To keep firefighters protected while gear is being cleaned, departments move to a two set program, issuing each firefighter a second set so one is always available. That drives both the gear quantity and the cleaning capacity a department needs.
What the solicitation contains
A two set gear program bid sets the second sets of gear, and often the gear extractors and dryers to clean them on the rotation the program requires, with the NFPA care standard reference and the capacity to keep gear in service.
What decides the award
The award turns on supporting the rotation so clean gear is always available, the capacity, and the care standard. The agent flags the program scope, the cleaning capacity it implies, and the care reference so a dealer proposes equipment sized for a two set rotation.
How the agent handles it
Our agent reads each two set gear program solicitation, ties the program to the cleaning capacity it requires, and scores the fit against your gear care lines and the department's rotation.
