## Summary

The Scottish Police Authority's recent procurement process, completed on 21st March 2025, involved a direct award under the YPO Framework for PPE workwear, specifically Lot 8 which covered PPE for public order situations. The awarded contract is intended to sustain supply continuity until the open tender PROC21-1341 is awarded. The contract was procured through a competitive procedure with negotiation and focused on delivering protective gear, including public order coveralls and undergarments. The procurement process, classified under industry category CPV 18143000 (Protective gear), was specifically targeted within the UKM region (Scotland), with the award notice now complete.

This procurement presents significant business opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in manufacturing and supplying protective gear, with a strong emphasis on quality, delivery, customer service, sustainability, and social value. Businesses adept at meeting stringent quality standards and those capable of integrating sustainability practices into their offerings could find this tender especially beneficial. Companies like MI HUB LTD, the current supplier, demonstrate the type of business well-suited for such contracts. Furthermore, the framework's potential for re-competition provides ongoing opportunities for businesses to engage with public sector procurement for PPE needs in public order contexts.
