Summary of the contracting process

The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) has completed the procurement of 5.11 workwear clothing with BIP Solutions Limited acting as the buying organisation. The awarded contract, valued at GBP 10,096, includes a range of clothing and accessories such as jackets, polo shirts, and belts, specifically for police use. This procurement falls under the industry category of clothing, footwear, luggage articles and accessories, with additional classifications in police services and security equipment. The procurement stage is at the award phase, and all items are to be delivered to a central London location by 31st March 2025. The contract period runs from 4th March 2025 to 31st March 2025, with a tender method of competitive quotation (below threshold). Key dates include the end of the tender period on 18th February 2025 and the publication of the award notice on 25th February 2025.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of police and security uniforms and accessories. The specific requirements for 5.11 clothing items, some of which require additional customisation such as the sewing of velcro patches, suggest a preference for suppliers with capabilities in specialised clothing production. Businesses equipped to meet the high standards and delivery timelines of the MPS, particularly those with experience in supplying to police or security forces, will find this tender advantageous for growth. Companies that can adhere to the strict terms and conditions set by the MPS, and are flexible in processing custom orders, are well-suited to compete for such contracts.
