Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire was concluded under the title "Provision of Epaulettes, Sliders and Rank Insignia". Categorised under the 'Occupational clothing, special workwear and accessories' industry, the procurement was fulfilled in locations within the United Kingdom, specifically regions UKF24 and UKF25. The process used a direct procurement method due to its below-threshold nature, proceeded without competition, and reached the awarding stage with a contract commencement date of 15th December 2025, ending on 14th December 2028, with potential renewals up to 14th December 2030. The contract was valued at £30,000 excluding VAT (£36,000 including VAT), with no obligation for the full amount to be spent.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in manufacturing occupational clothing and accessories. Given the nature of this procurement, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) such as Intramark Limited, which was awarded the contract, could gain significant market exposure and credibility by partnering with a public sector entity like Northamptonshire Police. Companies with expertise in supplying police or emergency service uniforms, and those capable of delivering within specified UK regions, would find this type of contract particularly well-suited to their portfolio, allowing them to tap into new markets and enhance their business standing.
