The procurement process concerns the Department for Health and Social Care in the United Kingdom, focusing on the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers dealing with COVID-19. This tender, classified under the CPV code for garments for biological or chemical protection, culminated in an award valued at £17,120,142.11. The procurement method used was a limited negotiated procedure without prior publication, and the contract period was set for 29 March 2020.

The large monetary value of the contract highlights the scale of opportunities available for firms capable of meeting such needs.
