## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care has completed a procurement process for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) specifically designed for healthcare workers responding to patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases. The contract, valued at £12,900,000, was awarded to My Shipper Ltd following an urgent negotiated procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as outlined under Article 32 of relevant EU directives. This procurement was initiated on 3rd April 2020, with the contract period lasting until 4th April 2020 and delivery expected within the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the PPE manufacturing and supply industry, particularly those that can provide garments for biological or chemical protection. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to consider participation, as their agility and responsiveness align well with the urgent needs outlined by the Department of Health and Social Care. Companies capable of delivering quality PPE quickly and efficiently are well-positioned to leverage this type of contract for growth and expansion in the ongoing response to health crises.
