Summary of the contracting process

The Cleveland Fire Authority has completed a public procurement process titled "Fire Fighting Boots" under the industry category of footwear (CPV code: 18800000), focusing on the supply of firefighting personal protective equipment (PPE) boots. This procurement covered multiple UK regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, and others. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, falling outside the scope of the directive. This process was concluded as an award stage, with Eagle Technical Products Ltd as the successful supplier. The related contract was signed on 1st July 2025, with the awarded lot status marked as active. The procurement was facilitated through a further competition exercise arranged via the YPO Framework for PPE and other related goods.

This tender presents growth opportunities for footwear manufacturers, particularly those specialising in protective and specialist work boots. Businesses such as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Eagle Technical Products Ltd could benefit significantly by participating in such frameworks and processes facilitated by local or regional authorities. Given the nature of the competitive bidding process, companies offering competitive pricing and quality products have a substantial opportunity to establish themselves as suppliers within government frameworks. Moreover, the opportunity for contract renewals, as indicated by the options for extending the contract by two additional 12-month periods, highlights the potential for sustained business growth for the successful vendor.
