## Summary

Bromsgrove District Council is purchasing personal protective equipment (PPE) and clothing for delivery in England. The requirement is described as a contract for PPE and clothing under lots 1 and 2 of the ESPO 144_23 framework. The goods are protective and safety clothing, intended to equip the council’s workforce with safety wear and related clothing. The procurement is for goods rather than services or works, and covers a defined supply requirement rather than a broader framework appointment. The buyer is Bromsgrove District Council.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. Bromsgrove District Council made a direct award under the ESPO 144_23 framework, covering lots 1 and 2. PK Safety was selected, with an award value of £50,000. The award was made on 16 October 2026, and the contract runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The procurement record identifies the contract period and award outcome but gives no breakdown of the award between framework lots. No evaluation criteria are stated, so the award basis beyond the direct-award route cannot be described. The original tender submission deadline was 16 October 2026.

For suppliers of PPE and work clothing, this award demonstrates a council requirement for protective and safety clothing sourced through an established framework, using a direct award route. The selected supplier, PK Safety, is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that an SME supplier was selected for this purchase. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply suitable PPE and clothing to a public-sector buyer and be able to fulfil orders under the relevant framework lots. The work is a defined supply contract for one council rather than a broad service delivery opportunity. Suppliers whose range and public-sector supply arrangements align with ESPO 144_23 lots 1 and 2 are the closest fit.
