## Summary

Norfolk County Council has completed a procurement process titled "Provision of face shields," which falls under the goods category, specifically for safety visors. The procurement method was an award without prior publication, executed in accordance with regulation 32 2(c) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015, due to the urgent need for personal protective equipment amid the Covid-19 pandemic. The contract, valued at £25,020, was active on 31st March 2020, with notice of the award published on 22nd May 2020. The procurement primarily took place in the East of England.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses, especially those supplying personal protective equipment, to engage with local authorities during health crises. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the capability to deliver safety visors and other PPE would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts, as they can respond quickly to urgent procurement needs. The experience gained from participating in these contracts can help businesses expand their market reach and strengthen their relationships with public sector buyers.
