Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire Constabulary recently completed a public procurement process for police uniforms, specifically utility vests, under the Blue Light Commercial Framework 0145. The procurement falls under the goods category with a CPV classification of 35811200. The contract has been awarded to MC Products UK Ltd for a total estimated contract value of £150,000. The contract period commenced on 20th October 2025 and will end on 19th October 2028. The procurement was carried out with an 'Other' method and reached the award stage by 29th October 2025.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the production and supply of police uniforms and related security apparel. MC Products UK Ltd, the awarded supplier, will likely benefit from increased visibility and business expansion within the law enforcement sector. The contract's scale and geographical reach suggest that companies with established production capabilities and experience in delivering high-quality uniforms would be well-suited for similar opportunities.
