Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority, located in Glasgow, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process under reference PROC-24-2681 for the supply and delivery of rigid plastic containers, lids, and suitable trolleys/dollies. This contract, classified under CPV code 30190000 for various office equipment and supplies, falls within the goods category. Initially initiated as a tender and employing an open procedure, the procurement method ensured broad participation opportunities. While the award in February 2026 went to Medstor, a large supplier, notable dates span from the tender's active status in November 2025 to the contract award. Delivery is set within the UKM8 region, with the procurement covered by GPA guidelines.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in office equipment supplies, particularly those with capabilities in manufacturing or distributing rigid plastic storage solutions. With a focus on quality and pricing criteria, companies offering competitive technical solutions at favourable prices were well-positioned to gain significant business growth. The requirements for insurance coverage and financial stability imply that medium to large enterprises with robust operational and economic frameworks were particularly suited to participate. Such contracts not only provide direct revenue but also allow suppliers to establish long-term relationships with public bodies like the Scottish Police Authority, offering possibilities for renewals and future collaborations.
