Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Enfield bought corporate protective clothing and personal protective equipment for use by its staff. The range covers occupational clothing and workwear accessories, including coats, weatherproof garments, sweatshirts and other clothing; waterproof and protective footwear; surgical gloves, protective goggles and safety equipment. Delivery is to the council’s offices and other locations in Enfield. The procurement is for goods, rather than a service or works contract, and brings together clothing and safety items for the borough’s operational needs. The requirement is broad enough to encompass suppliers able to provide a varied PPE and clothing range, rather than a single garment or item.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to SMI INT GROUP LTD. The contract is active and was signed on 3 August 2026. Its stated value is £666,667 excluding VAT, covering the full 48-month contract period. Enfield used a direct-award call-off from the ESPO Personal Protective Equipment and Clothing Framework, without a separate competition. The lot is marked cancelled in the tender data, while the award and contract are recorded as active. The recorded evaluation basis was price. One bid was recorded, from an SME. The contract has no extension options. The procurement rationale describes the call-off as compliant with the framework; the contract value is based on its total duration.

For suppliers considering this requirement when it next comes to market, the award demonstrates Enfield’s demand for a broad, multi-category supply of workplace clothing and PPE, rather than a single specialist item. A credible competitor would need to source and supply occupational clothing, weatherproof garments, footwear, gloves, goggles and safety equipment, with the capacity to deliver to council offices and other borough locations. The previous route was a call-off from the ESPO PPE and Clothing Framework, so experience supplying through that framework would be commercially relevant. The award went to an SME, showing that a smaller supplier was able to win this requirement. Price was the recorded evaluation basis, making competitive pricing across the product range a key consideration.
