Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involved the Kent Fire and Rescue Service seeking a supplier for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for Firefighters through a competitive tendering process, specifically a negotiated procedure. This tender, titled "C15041 Personal Protective Equipment for Firefighters," is classified under the protective and safety clothing industry category. The contract period starts on 13 June 2017 and ends on 12 June 2021. The award was active as of 22 May 2017, with an estimated total contract value of £180 million, aimed at providing comprehensive PPE solutions across the UK, including the British Overseas Territories and Europe.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses within the safety apparel and equipment sector, particularly suppliers capable of offering a fully managed service with personal issue PPE or purchase-only options. Companies that can meet the diverse needs outlined in the tender, such as fire gloves, helmets, and rescue jackets, would find this a suitable contract to pursue. Given the scale of the contract and its collaborative nature, larger suppliers with strong distribution and logistics capabilities may have a competitive advantage in meeting the requirements of the Kent Fire and Rescue Service and other participating organisations.
