## Summary

The Gateshead Council is seeking suppliers for a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) aimed at procuring protective equipment in response to the COVID-19 emergency. This procurement falls under the category of goods, specifically classified as protective gear (CPV 18143000). The tender was published on 29 May 2020, and the tender period will remain open until 15 June 2020. The contract is expected to commence on 23 June 2020 and will run for a year until 23 June 2021. The procurement method is an open procedure, with an accelerated process initiated due to the urgent nature of the pandemic response, allowing for a swift selection of suppliers and delivery of goods across the North East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that supply protective equipment to engage in public procurement. Companies that can deliver a variety of protective gear swiftly and efficiently may find this an advantageous situation, particularly those located in or able to service the North East. The flexibility of the DPS may also allow suppliers to respond to potential future emergencies as deemed by the council during its operational period.

## Notice

The Dynamic Purchasing System will cover the requirements of the Council, TGHC and their partner organisations to procure a range of protective equipment which may be required to enable the Council to have resilience processes in place to be able to continue to deliver appropriate services during the COVID-19 emergency situation. This DPS may be used to source products in response to any other situation which is deemed as an emergency by the Council during the lifespan of the DPS.
