Summary of the contracting process

Wythenshawe Community Housing Group Limited bought the supply and delivery of its authorised staff uniform items. This is a goods contract for occupational clothing, within the wider clothing, footwear and accessories category. Delivery is required across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The requirement is for uniforms authorised by the housing group, rather than general clothing supply. The awarded supplier is based in Preston, while the buyer is based in Manchester.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Key Engineering & Hygiene Supplies Ltd. The award is active; the contract was signed on 15 September 2025 and runs from 15 September 2025 to 14 September 2028, with an option for one 12-month renewal and a maximum extent to 14 September 2029. The contract value is £198,397.44 including tax. The original estimated procurement value was £150,000 excluding tax (£180,000 including tax). It was a below-threshold procurement, with the specific method recorded as unknown. There was one lot, marked complete and suitable for SMEs. No award criteria or evaluation basis are recorded.

This award shows demand from Wythenshawe Community Housing Group for a managed supply and delivery service covering its authorised uniform range, with deliveries spread across England. A credible competitor would need to source and supply occupational clothing against the buyer’s approved requirements, handle geographically broad distribution and fulfil orders accurately and promptly. The contract’s performance measures point to the operational priorities: delivery of orders within five working days, accurate fulfilment, and control of returns caused by defects. Suppliers with dependable stock availability, order processing and delivery operations, plus quality control that reduces errors and defective items, would be well placed to meet a similar requirement. The existing award provides evidence of a multi-year requirement, with a possible renewal, rather than a one-off clothing purchase.
