Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes City Council is procuring branded corporate clothing and staff uniforms for its employees. The requirement covers corporate clothing, occupational clothing, special workwear and related clothing accessories. This is a goods supply opportunity rather than a services or construction contract. Delivery is required in the United Kingdom. The council is the buying organisation and is seeking suppliers able to provide branded workwear and corporate clothing suitable for staff use. The procurement relates to one requirement, covering the clothing supply as a whole. Businesses specialising in workwear, uniforms, corporate clothing, garment supply, embroidery, printing or other branding services may find the requirement relevant where they can provide the specified clothing and branding to the council’s requirements.

The process has reached tender: Milton Keynes City Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Suppliers could submit questions until 20 August 2026 at 23:59, and the tender submission deadline was 28 August 2026 at 12:00. Offers are to be submitted electronically, with the tender managed through the council’s e-tendering system. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The estimated procurement value is £60,000 excluding VAT and £72,000 including VAT. The single lot is recorded with a value of 60,000 AED excluding VAT and 72,000 AED including VAT. Evaluation is based on quality weighted at 70% and price at 30%.

This opportunity suits suppliers with direct experience designing, sourcing, manufacturing, branding or distributing staff uniforms, corporate clothing and occupational workwear. Relevant businesses may include uniform suppliers, workwear manufacturers, garment wholesalers and specialists in embroidery, screen printing, heat transfer or other methods of applying corporate branding. Competitors should be able to supply clothing and accessories for council staff and manage the requirements of a public-sector customer over the stated contract term. The requirement may also suit established suppliers with reliable garment sourcing, quality control, sizing and fulfilment arrangements, as well as businesses able to handle repeat or varied clothing orders. Providers offering an integrated clothing and branding service are particularly well aligned with the stated requirement.
