UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales bought microfleece garments for police uniform use under lot 2 of an existing framework. The goods are for delivery across five areas in Wales: Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan, Bridgend and Neath Port Talbot, Swansea, Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, and Ceredigion. This is a supply requirement rather than a service or works contract, and the published item classification identifies police uniforms. The process covered a single lot of microfleeces, with the South Wales Police and Crime Commissioner as buyer. The awarded supplier is based in Londonderry, Northern Ireland, while delivery is to South Wales.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hunter Apparel Solutions Limited. The buyer made the award without a competitive call-off, using a selective route under the BLC0275 framework, lot 2; the method is described as below-threshold framework award. The award is active. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026 and runs from 21 October 2026 to 7 October 2029, with a 12-month extension option that could extend it to 6 October 2030. Its value is £23,136 excluding VAT (£28,920 including VAT). The procurement had one lot. No award criteria or evaluation weighting are stated in the process information.

For suppliers of police uniform clothing, this award shows that the South Wales Police and Crime Commissioner buys microfleeces through an established framework rather than through a competitive individual call-off. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to supply suitable police-uniform garments and be capable of fulfilling deliveries across the five South Wales areas covered. The selected supplier is a small business, showing that this requirement was delivered by an SME rather than necessarily requiring a large national provider. Relevant commercial strengths include dependable garment supply, capacity to cover the required geography and experience meeting the needs of a police-uniform buyer. The award relates specifically to microfleeces, so suppliers focused on unrelated clothing or general services would be less directly relevant. પહોંચી
