## Summary

The Lancashire Constabulary is conducting a completed procurement process for the supply of Firearms Helmets, which falls under the protective gear category within the goods sector. The procurement method employed was a limited competitive quotation, aimed at suppliers capable of providing services below the £100,000 threshold. The tender period concluded on 31 March 2020, with the awarded contract starting on 1 May 2020 and lasting until 30 April 2024. The total contract value is £25,000, and delivery is expected in the North West region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the protective gear sector to engage with a local law enforcement agency. Businesses that specialise in manufacturing or supplying safety equipment, particularly those that can provide high-quality helmets at competitive prices, would be well-suited to compete in future tender processes. This ongoing relationship with the Lancashire Constabulary may foster long-term partnerships, encouraging businesses to grow and innovate within the public sector.
