Summary of the contracting process

The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire has completed a procurement process for the provision of PSU equipment and accessories, such as PSU guards and football spotter vests, under the direct procurement method.

The procurement took place in the regions of UKF24 and UKF25 in the United Kingdom, with the contract starting from 20th July 2026 for a period of three years, with an optional extension of an additional year. This process has reached the contract award stage, with Chiltern Global Ltd. serving as the supplier.
