Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office has recently completed a public procurement process for the purchase of confined spaces breathing apparatus, aimed at enhancing their capability to enter and search high-risk confined spaces on commercial vessels and road tankers. This contract, with a value of £20,000, is classified under the "Breathing apparatus" industry category (CPV code: 44611200). The contract was awarded through a direct procurement method, specifically a single tender action below the threshold. The procurement stage is now at the award stage, with the contract period running from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025. The breathing apparatus will be delivered across a range of locations including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the rest of the world, and the United Kingdom.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for suppliers of safety equipment, particularly those who specialise in breathing apparatus.

By securing similar contracts, businesses can establish and expand their footprint in high-stakes safety equipment provision, enhance their reputation, and build long-term relationships with government departments such as the Home Office.
