The Policia Nacional buys goods for a uniformed service, including clothing, footwear, vehicle items and administrative systems. Its latest clothing-and-accessories opportunity therefore matters to suppliers beyond the garment trade: the scope, delivery requirements and commercial scale will shape which firms can participate and how they assess the opportunity.
KEY NUMBERS
The notice for clothing and accessories was published on 2026-09-17 and closes on 2026-11-02. Its DOP 813329090 is an advertised value, not an awarded value. It signals the procurement’s stated commercial ceiling or reference amount before bids are assessed, and the facts exclude framework ceilings from the comparison.
The buyer issued 67 other notices during the relevant period, with a median notice value of DOP 1525622. The clothing notice is 533 times that median. A median describes the middle of the buyer’s notices, so the comparison identifies an unusually large procurement relative to the buyer’s ordinary notice scale; it does not predict the eventual contract price.
The comparison places the clothing notice well above the next-largest listed opportunity, the DOP 144257950 licence purchase for the ULTICABINET document-management system. Its DOP 813329090 is also 1.5 times the value of everything else combined. That pattern points to a procurement requiring closer scope and capacity review than a routine clothing notice.

For bidders, the key distinction is between the opportunity advertised and the award that may follow. The notice title covers garments and accessories, so firms assessing it need to test the specification, quantities, delivery terms and eligibility rules against their capacity rather than treating DOP 813329090 as guaranteed revenue. The outlier size alone is not evidence of impropriety.
The clothing notice is 533 times the Policia Nacional’s median notice value.
WHY IT MATTERS
A large advertised value can change the supplier pool without becoming an award. The Policia Nacional case shows why bidders should separate the published ceiling from expected revenue, examine whether the clothing-and-accessories scope fits their capacity, and read the timetable and conditions before deciding whether to participate. A pronounced outlier is a reason for commercial diligence, not evidence of impropriety.
