The Houses of Parliament wish to appoint a Contractor(s) to Supply and Deliver Corporate Clothing Uniforms for Front of House and Back of House including Catering uniforms requirements and Associated Accessories.

The Houses of Parliament requires an efficient, reliable and adaptable service to meet its current and future corporate clothing needs. While the Houses of Parliament will be the main user of this contract, we would wish to reserve the right to extend this provision to other UK Parliament and Assembly staff, if required.

The Contractor(s) must be able to offer a fitting and alteration service on/off site, accessories including name badges, shirts, blouses, t-shirts, ties, scarves, footwear, hats and if required maternity clothing alternative.

The clothing itself is required to be comfortable, stylish/professional, of a good quality, durable and fit for purpose. The range of items required may also extend during the life of the contract.

The Houses of Parliament will wish to retain current style in some areas, but may take the opportunity to update other areas whilst ensuring a cohesive, corporate/professional image.

The requirements of the contract are identified in three Lots (see full description below):

Lot 1 Personal Protective Equipment and work wear Associated Items.

Lot 2 Front of House Business Wear and Associated Items.

Lot 3 Catering Back of House and Associated Items.

The Houses of Parliament intends to award several contractors to each Lot.
