Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process has been completed for the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), which contracted the provision of public order shields. This direct procurement was carried out as a single tender action for goods classified under protective gear, and the award was made to DMS Protective Equipment Limited. The contract period began on 30th July 2021 and concluded on 31st December 2021. The total value of the contract is £36,562.50. Although the tender was officially closed on 29th July 2021, the award notice was published on 5th January 2022, highlighting the procurement engagement located in the region of London, United Kingdom.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses that supply protective equipment, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing similar models to those already in use within the police force. SMEs specialising in manufacturing protective gear or offering innovative security solutions would be particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders, as the MPS seeks to standardise its equipment for operational efficiency. Engaging with such public contracts can help businesses expand their market presence and establish long-term relationships with governmental agencies.
