Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Housing Executive procured the supply and delivery of personal protective equipment and workwear for its operations in Northern Ireland. The goods were divided into eight areas: safety footwear; uniforms; trousers and coveralls; high-visibility clothing; women’s protective clothing and workwear; gloves; eye, ear and head protection; and masks and respirators. This is a goods procurement covering clothing, footwear and protective accessories (CPV 18000000). The buyer is the Northern Ireland Housing Executive, a public authority based in Belfast. The requirement suits manufacturers, distributors and specialist workwear or safety-equipment suppliers able to provide a broad range of compliant protective clothing and equipment, with delivery capability across Northern Ireland.

The procurement is complete and was run as an above-threshold open competitive flexible procedure. The tender closed on 16 April 2026, following an amended deadline, and awards were made on 20 July 2026. Contracts were signed on 30 July 2026, with delivery contracts starting on 3 August 2026 and running to 2 August 2027, with options to extend to 2 August 2029. Tailored Image Ltd won safety footwear at £79,977.73 gross. ProSafe Products Ltd won uniforms at £47,610.19 gross. PJD Safety Supplies Ltd won trousers and coveralls (£101,602.68), high-visibility clothing (£80,693.28), women’s protective clothing and workwear (£14,191.92), gloves (£49,883.58), eye, ear and head protection (£12,996.68), and masks and respirators (£563,031.45), all gross. Cost was the sole award criterion for every lot.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from the Northern Ireland Housing Executive for safety footwear, uniforms, protective workwear and respiratory protection, supplied as separate specialist areas rather than one undifferentiated requirement. The successful suppliers were Northern Ireland SMEs, showing that smaller businesses can compete for individual lots. A credible future supplier would need dependable sourcing and distribution, product knowledge across relevant personal protective equipment categories, and the capacity to fulfil regular Housing Executive requirements in Northern Ireland. The use of cost as the sole award criterion means competitive pricing is central. Businesses should also be able to manage a one-year initial service period with possible extensions, maintain consistent stock availability, and deliver reliably across the buyer’s operations.
