## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service (SPS) was actively involved in the procurement of extendable batons, a process that has culminated in the awarding of a contract. The procurement was categorised under goods, specifically "Batons" according to the CPV scheme, and was carried out through an open procedure. The procurement process, initiated as a tender, covered the United Kingdom with delivery in the region UKM. The most recent stage is the award stage, recorded on 5 February 2026. The awarded contract was signed on 22 April 2024, with SPS as the buying organisation located in Edinburgh.

This tender presents tangible opportunities for businesses specialising in safety equipment and law enforcement tools. SMEs, particularly those focusing on manufacturing or supplying durable and maintenance-free batons, are well-positioned to capture such public contracts. Given the procurement's focus on quality and cost, businesses can gain competitive advantage by investing in product innovation and cost efficiency, ultimately expanding their market presence within the public sector. The awarded contract demonstrates the viability of SMEs, such as Niton Equipment, to effectively compete and succeed in public procurement opportunities.
