Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, titled "PRN004453 - PROVISION OF PPE TO NOTTINGHAMSHIRE FIRE AND RESCUE SERVICE," was executed by the Nottinghamshire and City of Nottingham Fire Authority. This contract pertains to the provision of occupational clothing, special workwear, and accessories, falling under the goods category with the CPV code 18100000. The procurement was conducted through a limited procedure, specifically using the YPO Framework 001204 Lot 1, without a prior call for competition, owing to it falling outside the scope of the directive's application. The procurement stage is marked as complete, with the contract awarded to Bristol Uniforms Limited. The contract, valued at £50,000, was signed on 5th December 2025 and is intended to serve the Nottinghamshire region, specifically within the UKF1 area.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in manufacturing or supplying personal protective equipment (PPE) and related workwear. Given that the contract has been awarded through a limited procurement method focusing on a specific framework, businesses familiar with such frameworks and capable of providing niche items like PPE would be well-suited to compete in similar future opportunities. The contract with Bristol Uniforms Limited highlights the potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with specialised expertise to secure contracts with public safety organisations, such as fire and rescue services, thus facilitating business growth within this essential industry sector.
