Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for North Wales Police, based in Colwyn Bay, North Wales, has completed a procurement process for "Intoxyliser Supply" in the goods category. This direct procurement did not involve competition and was classified as below threshold. The contract was awarded to Lion Laboratories, a large-scale, VCSE-aligned supplier located in Barry, Wales. The process started with a tender initiation due to the urgency of the machine being out of order.
