This procurement falls under the industry category of waterproof clothing and footwear, with a total estimated value ranging between £1,640,000 and £4,080,000 over a span of four years. The process uses an open procurement method, which facilitates competitive participation across the goods category above the specified threshold and is covered by agreements like the GPA and CPTPP.
