Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Norfolk County Council, which awarded a contract for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to CMT Group Ltd. This process was classified under the medical equipment and personal care products industry and took place in the East of England. The procurement was initiated due to the urgent need for PPE to protect frontline workers against Covid-19, leading to the use of an open procurement method. The tender period concluded on 13th August 2020, with the contract period starting the following day and lasting until 15th August 2020. The contract value was £58,518.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of medical equipment and healthcare products. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), would be well-positioned to compete for such contracts, especially those that can respond quickly to urgent public health needs. Being part of the supply chain for essential PPE during global health emergencies allows these businesses to not only contribute to local welfare but also expand their operational footprint and visibility within the public sector.
