Summary of the contracting process

Chesterfield College procured hair and beauty kits, covering salon products and equipment for its teaching or operational requirements. The purchase falls within beauty products and is classified as goods rather than services or works. The buyer is Chesterfield College, based on Infirmary Road in Chesterfield, England, and the delivery postcode is S41 7NG. The purchasing requirement was associated with the college’s local site, although the delivery information also allows for supply to the United Kingdom and a range of wider locations. This is a product-supply opportunity for manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and specialist education or salon-equipment suppliers able to provide complete hair and beauty kit packages. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award under the CPC Salon Products and Equipment framework, reference CPC/RL/01/23. Chesterfield College selected College Kits Direct LTD. The award date was 15 September 2026 and the awarded value was £34,413.94 excluding any applicable tax. The resulting contract runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 December 2026. The original estimated procurement value was £35,000. The tender’s stated closing time was 15 September 2026 at 01:00 British Summer Time. This was a single, un-lotted purchase of hair and beauty kits and related salon products and equipment. As a direct framework award, the route was based on the framework’s established supplier arrangements rather than a separately described open competition or published scoring exercise.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear indication of Chesterfield College’s demand for packaged hair and beauty supplies and equipment at education-site scale. A credible future competitor would need to source and supply complete kits reliably, with a product range spanning both hairdressing and beauty training or salon activity. The successful supplier’s profile shows the value of a specialist kits provider able to fulfil a consolidated requirement rather than only individual products. Experience of public-sector or further-education purchasing would help, particularly familiarity with framework-based direct awards and the administrative discipline needed for college supply. Small and medium-sized businesses are expressly suitable, so a focused specialist distributor or manufacturer with dependable fulfilment, consistent product quality and the capacity to serve a college account could be well placed when this type of requirement returns.
