## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales procured softshell jackets for police uniforms under lot 1 of the BLC0275 framework. The requirement is for the supply of jackets, with delivery across five areas in Wales: Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan, Bridgend and Neath Port Talbot, Swansea, Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, and Ceredigion. This is a goods contract rather than a uniform design or service commission. The buying organisation is the South Wales Police and Crime Commissioner.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Cooneen Defence Limited through a selective, non-competitive award under an existing framework. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026, with the award made on that date. Its value is £29,400 excluding VAT (£36,750 including VAT). The contract runs from 21 October 2026 to 18 October 2027, with a 12-month extension option and a maximum end date of 17 October 2028. The procurement was a single lot. No separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis are recorded in the process details.

This award shows South Wales Police buys softshell jackets for police uniform provision through the BLC0275 framework, using a framework call-off rather than a standalone open competition. A future competitor would need to be able to supply suitable police uniform jackets and fulfil deliveries across the five South Wales areas covered by this requirement. Credibility depends on demonstrating relevant garment supply capability, dependable fulfilment over a multi-area contract and the capacity to meet the buyer’s operational uniform needs. Suppliers should also establish whether they can participate through the relevant framework route, since this contract was awarded under its first lot. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this scale of supply was delivered by an SME.
