UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Winchester has concluded the award stage of its procurement process for the supply of student uniforms for healthcare and sports programmes. The contract has been awarded to Black Mountain Clothing Limited, a UK-based SME, and is valued at £90,000. The procurement falls under the industry category of "occupational clothing, special workwear and accessories" and spans various locations in the United Kingdom, specifically in regions UKJ and UKK. The contract, starting on 2nd June 2026, will run for one year with an optional extension for an additional year, subject to mutual agreement. The award was conducted through an open competition method below the threshold of extensive European procurement rules, with the process being finalised in May 2026.

This tender offers expansive business growth opportunities, especially for companies specialising in uniform supply and those able to cater to educational institutions with specific requirements. SMEs, in particular, can benefit from such contracts due to the focus on cost and service quality rather than purely on scale. The open competition method allows diverse suppliers to enter the bidding process, thereby encouraging competitive pricing and innovative service delivery. Companies that can efficiently handle bulk orders, maintain high-quality standards, and ensure timely delivery across multiple locations will find such contracts particularly lucrative.
