Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of Glasgow College has completed the procurement for the provision of beauty kits and consumables intended for curriculum delivery. This contract falls under the personal care products industry category and is being executed at the City Campus in Glasgow, Scotland. This award was facilitated through a direct award mechanism under the established APUC Hair & Beauty Framework, Lot 1. The award process adhered to the framework's call-off provisions, thus bypassing a traditional public call for competition. The contract, valued at £340,000, was signed on 23rd April 2026, with College Kits Direct LTD, an SME based in the UK, chosen as the supplier.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in beauty products and related consumables. Such businesses can thrive by being a part of frameworks like APUC’s, which offer consistent demand from educational institutions aiming to enhance their curriculum with practical resources. Additionally, businesses that provide competitive pricing and quality products will benefit from potential contract extensions, reflecting contract longevity. The limited nature of this procurement method underscores the importance of maintaining relationships within public sector frameworks to access similar opportunities.
