Summary of the contracting process

Greensquareaccord Limited procured occupational clothing, specialist workwear and accessories for its staff. The requirement covers personalised work clothing, specialist footwear, equipment kept up to date with legislation, disposable kits, hand sanitiser, face protection, hand protection, head protection and hearing protection. Clothing is personal to the organisation, indicating a need for individual allocation and supply rather than generic stock alone. The goods are delivered across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. The buying organisation is Greensquareaccord Limited, a public authority based in Birmingham. This is a goods procurement focused on workplace personal protective equipment and staff clothing.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded through a direct award, justified by the requirement for personalised clothing. There was one lot, marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Safpro Industrial Supply Company was selected as supplier. The awarded value is £237,292 excluding VAT, or £284,750 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 1 September 2027, with a possible 12-month extension to 1 September 2028. The requirement was evaluated on the basis of the personalised clothing need rather than a competitive tender process. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 24 August 2026. The award is above the relevant threshold. The occupational clothing classification is CPV 18100000.

This outcome demonstrates recurring demand from Greensquareaccord for a broad, organisation-wide PPE and workwear supply capability. A credible competing supplier would need to provide personalised clothing allocated to individual staff, specialist footwear and compliant protective equipment across multiple protection categories, including hand, head, hearing and face protection. The requirement also favours suppliers able to provide disposable protective kits and hand sanitiser alongside reusable clothing and equipment, rather than a narrow single-product specialist. Operational strength would include reliable distribution across England, maintaining current equipment in line with legislation and managing varied staff requirements at scale. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that this type of requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist with sufficient product range, compliance knowledge and fulfilment capacity.
