Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Gwent Police and Crime Commissioner is initiating a supplier demonstration event for carbine weapons, scheduled from 7th to 11th September 2020, at two locations in Wales: Waterton and Glascoed. This event falls under the planning stage of the procurement process, with the engagement deadline set for 1st September 2020. The classification of this procurement activity is classified as firearms, and interested suppliers are encouraged to review the technical specifications provided.

This demonstration event presents an excellent growth opportunity for businesses that specialise in supplying firearms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Suppliers capable of meeting the operational requirements outlined for the carbine weapons are ideally suited to participate, as various police forces from the UK will be in attendance. Engaging in this early-stage event could potentially lead to future procurement contracts, as the insights gathered may inform more formal tender processes down the line.
