This falls under the goods category, related to the manufacturing of waterproof clothing (CPV code: 18221000). The award was made on 15 February 2022, with the contract valued at £73,150. The procurement followed a limited method without prior publication and was justified due to the unique technical requirements fulfilled exclusively by MUSTO Limited, the awarded supplier based in London, UK. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focusing on specialised clothing manufacturing, particularly those with expertise in waterproof materials and technical clothing suited for marine environments. Firms that can demonstrate robust capabilities in manufacturing durable fabrics and innovative designs, like zip covers, may find competitive advantage in such procurement processes. The ability to meet specific safety and operational demands for maritime environments makes participation in similar tenders advantageous for growth within this niche market. ## Notice This is a Contract Award Notice to notify industry that SALMO (part of DE&S) have procured waterproof clothing in order to meet the health and safety requirements for civilians when operating in a maritime environment.
