## Summary

The South Wales Fire and Rescue Service, in collaboration with the Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Authority and the North Wales Fire and Rescue Service, has completed the procurement process for the supply of Fire Cadet Uniform and Ancillary Items. The procurement covered multiple lots, including workwear, drill suits and leggings, wellington boots, and gloves. The contracts were awarded on 2nd September 2024, with successful suppliers being Footprint Uniforms for both workwear and drill suits and leggings, Southcombe Brothers Limited for gloves, and Simon Safety & Lifting Centre Ltd for wellington boots. The contracts are for an initial period of three years, with the possibility of a 12-month extension based on supplier performance. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with the primary industry category being public services, and the contracts will be fulfilled in the UKL region.

This tender process offers substantial opportunities for SMEs, particularly those involved in the manufacturing and supply of uniforms and safety gear. Successful suppliers will benefit from long-term contracts, potentially lasting up to four years. Companies specialising in high-quality, durable workwear and safety equipment are well-suited to compete in such procurements. By securing a contract with a public sector entity, businesses can enhance their portfolio, gain credibility, and ensure a steady revenue stream, which is essential for sustainable business growth.
