This is a supply of police clothing, specifically trousers, for use as part of police uniforms. The procurement covers one lot and is associated with the Norfolk and Suffolk requirement; the named buyer is the Norfolk Police and Crime Commissioner. The contract title and description identify the item and the forces served, but do not give further garment specifications, quantities or delivery sites.

The successful supplier is a large business, indicating that a supplier with the capacity to meet a public-sector clothing requirement at this scale was selected; the contract also includes the possibility of continued supply through renewals. The procurement offers a useful indication of the buyer, product and purchasing route to monitor when developing a future offer for this specific requirement.
