The project is classified under the industry category "Boots" (CPV 18815000) and "Knee Boots" (CPV 18815300). The framework agreement is expected to commence on 20th March 2026 and will last up to six years, with an estimated value ranging between £540,000 and £1,360,000. The scope of delivery includes a variety of locations such as British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and the UK.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in footwear development and manufacturing, particularly those capable of delivering military-grade products. The focus on an extended framework lasting up to six years provides substantial long-term business prospects. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to express their interest.
