Royal Berkshire Fire Authority awarded a contract to Hunters Apparel Solutions Ltd for workwear uniforms.

The direct award was necessitated by the failure of the National Uniform Framework, which rendered the original call-off contract non-viable and led to its termination.

The direct award addressed events that could not have been reasonably foreseen.

The contract value was £50,000, and the requirement was re-tendered in 2023.
