Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement contracting process for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to Translink's stores locations in Northern Ireland is now complete. The process, conducted under the title "P-2939 Supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)", was handled by Translink, a key player in urban railway, tramway, trolleybus, and bus services in the UK. The procurement falls under the industry category of 'Protective gear' (CPV code 18143000) and followed an open procedure method. The contract, valued at GBP 950,000, officially commenced in January 2025 and will last for three years, with potential extensions for up to two more years. The contract award, issued on 17th February 2025, was secured by PJD Safety Supplies.

This procurement process presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of PPE. Companies specialising in safety visors, work gloves, workwear accessories, outerwear, safety headgear, disposable gloves, first-aid boxes, and related items would find this tender particularly relevant. The open tendering procedure allows a wide range of businesses to compete, and with specific award criteria focusing 10% on quality and 90% on cost, competitive pricing alongside quality offerings will be crucial. SMEs like PJD Safety Supplies, which successfully secured the contract, illustrate that smaller enterprises with the right competencies and competitive pricing strategies can compete effectively.
