This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified under camping goods and related items, such as towels and lanterns. The tender process is currently active and follows an open procurement method, allowing any qualified bidders to participate. Submissions are due by 22 June 2018, with the contract commencing on 2 July 2018 and running until 31 August 2018. Delivery is expected to address a wide array of locations, including British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply of emergency response items, such as camping equipment and pest control products. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, given their agility and expertise in providing targeted supplies during crisis situations. Engaging in this procurement can enhance a business's profile within the humanitarian sector and foster future growth through established partnerships with organisations like the British Red Cross. ## Notice The British Red Cross (BRC) helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. We are part of a global voluntary network, responding to conflicts, natural disasters and individual crises. We enable vulnerable people in the UK and abroad to prepare for and withstand crises in their own communities. When the crisis is over, we help them to recover and move on with their lives. The emergency response after hurricanes Irma and Maria in September 2017 included distributions of emergency relief materials to affected populations across several islands. BRC is now looking to replenish its prepositioned stocks of essential items in the Caribbean region to prepare for the next hurricane season and beyond. Interested Tenderer(s) fulfilling the eligibility conditions and having the capacity and capability to supply the required goods within the time and on the terms and conditions mentioned herein are requested to give their best and final offer and submit their Tender for the items stated in the Tender documentation. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0137cb3-5655-4c9d-8db1-ba8a49329ad8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Jun 2018 | | Submission deadline | 22 Jun 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jul 2018 - 31 Aug 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BRITISH RED CROSS | | Locality | PAISLEY | | Post town | Paisley | | Postcode | PA1 1EA | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM33 Inverclyde, East Renfrewshire, and Renfrewshire | | Local authority | Renfrewshire | | Electoral ward | Paisley East and Central | | Westminster constituency | Paisley and Renfrewshire South | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 24 - Chemical products - 31 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting - 32 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 37 - Musical instruments, sport goods, games, toys, handicraft, art materials and accessories - 39 - Furniture (incl. office furniture), furnishings, domestic appliances (excl. lighting) and cleaning products ### Codes - 24452000 - Insecticides - 31527210 - Lanterns - 32000000 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 37414000 - Camping goods - 39514100 - Towels - 39522520 - Camp beds ## Release History - 5 Jun 2018 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0137cb3-5655-4c9d-8db1-ba8a49329ad8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0137cb3-5655-4c9d-8db1-ba8a49329ad8 5th June 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JUN154645 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.redcross.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
