Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council, operating as a sub-central government authority in the United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process for the "Supply Of T Shirts For Darlington 10k & 3k Marathon Events." The procurement, categorised under goods within the clothing industry, focused on delivering technical running shirts for these annual marathon events. The process reached the award stage, with SPRINTERS SPORTSWEAR LTD, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Bishop Auckland, successfully awarded the contract. The contract, signed on 22nd May 2025, covers a period from 2nd June 2025 to 2nd June 2028, with a potential extension for two additional years. This limited procurement method was conducted under the legal framework 2023/54 and was limited due to being below the threshold for regular competition.

This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities for SMEs, particularly those involved in the production and supply of clothing and accessories. Companies specialising in sportswear and capable of delivering high-quality, technical garments may find similar tenders beneficial in establishing long-term relationships with governmental authorities. Participation in these procurement processes enables businesses to expand their client base and increase their operational scale while contributing to high-profile community events. Additionally, potential contract extensions provide ongoing stability and revenue streams for successful suppliers.
