Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by ScotRail Trains Limited focuses on the provision of staff uniforms, planned and executed through a negotiated procedure with a prior call for competition. The industry category is corporate clothing, specifically tailored for occupational use, and the procurement covers regions throughout Scotland. The tender process began with a planning stage in May 2023, moving through to tender and award by October 2025. Key highlights from this contracting process include a meticulously structured timeline starting from the planning phase to the award conclusion on 15th October 2025. The contract was awarded to Cooneen at Work Ltd, indicating the finalisation of the procurement dealing under the contract number 065530-2025. The procurement method was selective, allowing for competitive participation with clear emphasis on quality and price criteria.

This procurement offers substantial business growth opportunities for firms specialising in managed uniform services and corporate clothing. With approximately 4,000 uniform wearers specified, there is considerable scope for businesses with capability in large-scale clothing supply and management. The process advocates participation from diverse suppliers, supported by the receipt of five electronic bids, including notable interest from SMEs and EU-based firms. Businesses aiming to expand their footprint in UK railway-related services could particularly benefit from engaging in such selective procurement methods. The provision of options for contract renewal up to five additional years offers an extended horizon for collaboration and service delivery, making it an attractive proposition for suppliers adept at sustaining long-term contracts.
