Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Dive & Marine Unit PPE & Equipment" was commissioned by the Scottish Police Authority, a body governed by public law to ensure public order and safety. Located in Glasgow, United Kingdom, this tender falls under the "goods" category, specifically targeting weatherproof and waterproof clothing. The procurement used an open procedure, allowing for broad participation, and was covered under the GPA agreement. As of 5 January 2026, the procurement process has reached its award stage, with active contracts signed with multiple suppliers for various lots, including Offshore Clothing, Diving PPE & Equipment, and Dive Boat Equipment, each valued between £10,000 and £30,000.

The procurement encourages broad participation and is particularly beneficial for SMEs, with several small and medium-sized enterprises from the UK having been successfully awarded.
