County-run frameworks and shared procurement units (e.g. Hampshire's shared services) route significant spend.

How do I win Clothing, footwear, luggage articles and accessories contracts in South East England?
Sizing logistics and stock management win these contracts: buyers have been burned by suppliers who can price a garment but not manage 5,000 wearers with individual fittings and starters/leavers churn. Offer a managed wearer service with an online ordering portal, show ethical-supply-chain audits (modern slavery due diligence is scored), and hold relevant EN/ISO certifications for protective items. The counties operate their own well-organised e-sourcing portals (Kent Business Portal, In-Tend and ProContract instances) — register on each county you can serve, because sub-threshold work is invited through them without appearing on national portals. County DPS lists for transport, care and construction admit new suppliers on a rolling basis.
