## Summary

The Norfolk County Council has completed the procurement process for the provision of face visors as essential Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to aid in the protection of staff and others against Covid-19. This procurement was conducted under an urgent need as per regulation 32 2(c) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015, due to the unforeseen circumstances brought about by the pandemic. The contract was awarded on 27 April 2020, with a total value of £89,060. The procurement, classified under the CPV category of "Safety visors," falls under the goods category, and the items are to be delivered within the East of England region.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses involved in the manufacture and supply of PPE, particularly those specialising in safety equipment. Companies that can rapidly respond to urgent procurement needs, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), may find themselves well-suited to engage in similar contracts. The swift nature of this procurement showcases the necessity for suppliers who are capable of delivering high-quality products under tight deadlines, especially within the healthcare sector during emergencies.
