Multi-State HIRE agreement now includes RAE Systems MultiRAE and ToxiRAE Pro
Post-911 agreement utilized in 17 states
RAE Systems Inc. today announced its latest wireless gas-detection monitoring instruments are now available to first-response organizations participating in the Hazardous Incident Response Equipment (HIRE) agreement.
Developed by the New York State Comptroller’s Office in response to the 9-11 attacks, and then made available to other states, the HIRE process eliminates time-consuming bid requirements and provides greater flexibility in allocating equipment-related purchasing, which allows emergency response organizations to significantly simplify and expedite the procurement process for safety equipment. Currently, 17 states are members of the HIRE agreement, which has been extended through May 31, 2015.
