Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Department of Health and Social Care, which has awarded a contract for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (disposable aprons) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This falls under the goods category, specifically for garments providing biological or chemical protection. The contract, valued at £14,400,000, has been awarded following a limited procurement method through a negotiated procedure without prior publication. The award was made on 18th May 2020, with the contract period commencing on 25th May 2020 and running until 31st July 2020, with delivery addresses located in the United Kingdom.

This opportunity could be beneficial for large suppliers of protective apparel, particularly those specialising in medical-grade equipment.

Additionally, businesses with strong supply chain networks to ensure timely delivery will likely have a competitive advantage in the evolving public health landscape.
