Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care has completed a procurement process for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to safeguard healthcare workers dealing with patients suspected of or confirmed to have COVID-19. The tender, which was initiated as an urgent response to unforeseeable circumstances, awarded a contract valued at £7.3 million to P1F Limited on 13th May 2020. The contract covers the provision of PPE with a delivery address located in the United Kingdom, and the contract period was short, commencing and concluding on the same day, 14th May 2020. The procurement method was executed without prior publication of a call for competition, in accordance with specific conditions outlined in applicable procurement regulations.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in the manufacture and supply of PPE and related goods. Businesses engaged in the healthcare supply sector, particularly those that can swiftly respond to urgent demands, are well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders. The experience of working with a major buyer such as the Department of Health and Social Care can also enhance a company’s reputation and open doors to further contracts in the public health sector.
