Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care in London has awarded a contract for £5,600,000 to Yearntree Ltd for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment, specifically face masks, for healthcare workers responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. The procurement process, initiated as a tender due to extreme urgency, concluded the tender period on 15 April 2020, with the contract commencing the following day. This contract falls under the category of goods, specifically related to garments for biological or chemical protection, and was executed without prior publication of a competition announcement, justified by unforeseen circumstances.

This contract presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) engaged in the production or supply of personal protective equipment. Businesses specialising in health and safety products, particularly those capable of rapid delivery and compliance with stringent protective standards, could benefit from similar future contracts, especially given the ongoing demand for health-related supplies in the current climate. SMEs with experience in the healthcare sector may find themselves well-suited to compete for upcoming tenders of this nature.
