In plain English
BlueLight Commercial Limited is setting up a four-year framework (a pre-agreed list of approved suppliers) so UK police forces can buy cycling clothing and personal protective equipment (PPE) without running their own tender. The estimated total value is £1.75 million, and the framework will replace the existing North Yorkshire Police framework.
What the buyer wants
• Supply the nine product types listed in the notice: helmets, eye protection, gloves, high-visibility waterproof jackets, cycle trousers or shorts, padded undershorts, skull caps or helmet liners, waterproof over-trousers and cycle shoes. • Provide these items to UK police forces under the framework, in line with the operational requirements and legislation the notice refers to. • Be willing to join a framework that covers all nine product types under one agreement.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not set out any eligibility thresholds, certifications or turnover requirements, so nothing explicit rules out small businesses, but a single framework covering nine product types worth £1.75 million over four years may favour suppliers who can cover the full range or hold substantial stock.
Always check the tender documents.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
