Summary of the contracting process

The Nottinghamshire and City of Nottingham Fire Authority has recently completed a procurement process for the provision of small handheld tools, consumable PPE equipment, and related products under the contract reference PRN004456. The procurement, classified under the CPV category for Tools, falls within the 'goods' sector. It took place in the East Midlands region, specifically UKF14, which encompasses Nottingham. This contract was finalised on 17th June 2025 for £120,000, and the preferred supplier, TW Engineering Co. Limited, has been awarded the contract. The procurement method used was limited and based on an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, utilising the ESPO Framework Agreement for optimal value.

This contract presents significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in manufacturing or distributing small tools and associated products, as evidenced by TW Engineering Co. Limited's successful bid. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality goods within stringent procurement frameworks, particularly those with expertise in supplying to public sector organisations, will find similar opportunities conducive to business growth. The strategic use of frameworks like ESPO, focusing on cost-effectiveness and value, suggests further tenders may also adhere to stringent budgetary considerations, offering a competitive advantage to businesses adept at efficient resource management and fulfilling supply chain requirements within the public order and safety sector.
