Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Northamptonshire County Council involves a tender for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The contract, valued at £451,613, falls under the goods category, specifically classified as protective gear (CPV code: 18143000). The procurement method employed was a direct award, and although the tender period concluded on 16 March 2020, the contract itself was active from 19 March 2020 to 27 April 2020. The delivery location for the goods is within the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom, with the award notice published on 26 May 2020.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in manufacturing or supplying PPE and related safety equipment. Given the urgent need for protective gear during the pandemic, businesses capable of fulfilling immediate delivery and quality standards would be well-suited to compete for similar future tenders. Organisations like Misco UK Computer Group, which successfully secured this contract, exemplify the type of businesses that can thrive in such procurement processes, highlighting the importance of agility and responsiveness in the PPE industry.
