Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire has completed the procurement process for supplying operational patrol trousers for Warwickshire Police officers. The contract, identified by reference WP25-0145 and classified under CPV code 18234000, was awarded through a direct call-off from an existing framework agreement facilitated by BlueLight Commercial. The procurement falls under the goods category and uses a selective procurement method. This contract has an initial term of three years starting on 15th December 2025, with potential extensions of up to four additional years, ensuring continuity in supply until potentially 14th December 2028. The delivery of these uniforms is to take place in the West Midlands, with an estimated annual spend in the region of £19,000 plus VAT, projected to total up to £133,000 should all extensions be enacted.
