Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Ulster is seeking to procure the supply of uniforms for nursing and paramedic students located in Coleraine, United Kingdom. The procurement is classified under the goods category, specifically within the clothing, footwear, luggage articles and accessories industry. This tender process is currently in the Award stage, with the contract having been signed on 14 September 2021. The total contract value is £200,283.58. It should be noted that this procurement was conducted via a limited procedure without prior publication, primarily to ensure a continuity of supply amid the ongoing Covid-19 crisis.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for suppliers in the education and healthcare apparel sectors, particularly those who can cater to the specific needs of nursing and paramedic uniforms. Businesses that design, manufacture, or supply clothing intended for educational institutions would be well-suited to participate in future tenders for such contracts, especially as the University plans to re-tender early in 2022 in preparation for a new cohort of paramedic students. Engaging with this tender could help businesses establish a long-term relationship with a reputable educational institution, thus supporting their growth trajectory.
