## Summary

The procurement process involved the Norfolk County Council, which completed a tender for the provision of face visors as personal protective equipment (PPE) to safeguard staff and the public against Covid-19. The process was classified under the goods category, specifically for safety visors, with a contract value of £39,000. The tender was awarded on 1 April 2020, without prior publication as permitted by regulation 32 2(c) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015, due to the urgent requirement arising from the pandemic. The geographical focus for delivery was the East of England, United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those manufacturing or supplying PPE and related goods, to engage with public sector procurement. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in safety equipment could leverage this opportunity for growth. Competing suppliers should possess the capacity to rapidly meet urgent demands, aligning their offerings with the critical need for health and safety equipment during emergencies, thereby contributing to public health while expanding their market presence.
