## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care has completed the procurement process for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment specifically designed for healthcare workers dealing with patients suspected or confirmed to have Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19). The contract, valued at £1,320,000, was awarded to Imperial Polythene Products Ltd. The tender period ended on 1st June 2020, and the contract period was set from 4th June 2020 to the same day. This procurement falls under the industry category of goods, specifically within the CPV classification for garments for biological or chemical protection, and was executed via a negotiated procedure without prior publication due to urgent circumstances.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the healthcare supply chain, particularly those specialising in personal protective equipment and related goods. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can provide high-quality protective garments are well-suited to compete in such tenders, especially given the increased demand for PPE in response to health crises.
