Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Katherine Warington School is procuring the supply of school uniforms, classified under CPV 18100000 as occupational clothing, special workwear and accessories. The requirement is for up to two suppliers to provide the uniforms for the school. The buyer is Katherine Warington School, based on Lower Luton Road in Harpenden, England. Delivery is identified in the procurement as covering the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe and the rest of the world. This is a goods procurement rather than a service or works contract, so it is relevant to uniform manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and specialist schoolwear retailers able to supply the required clothing across the stated delivery locations.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers using an open procedure. The deadline set for submitting offers was 19 October 2026 at 10:00 am. The contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029. Its estimated value is £125,000. The requirement is presented as a single procurement rather than being divided into published lots. The procurement is intended to appoint up to two suppliers. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Suppliers access the competition through the MultiQuote supplier platform using reference CA18421; registered suppliers can log in, while others must register before submitting a quotation. The procurement record does not set out an award scoring basis.

This opportunity suits businesses that supply school uniforms at institutional scale and can manage a continuing supply arrangement for a school. Relevant suppliers include manufacturers, schoolwear specialists, wholesalers and distributors with established uniform ranges, dependable stock control and the operational capacity to fulfil orders consistently. Businesses able to handle the school’s uniform requirement directly, or to coordinate manufacture, sourcing and distribution, are likely to be well placed to compete. The procurement is expressly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller specialist schoolwear businesses as well as larger suppliers. Suppliers should be able to deliver across the geographical scope set by the buyer and provide a reliable route for ordering and fulfilment.
