This contract, valued at £80,000, falls under the industry category of Administration, Defence and Social Security services. The procurement method employed was direct, utilising a single tender action below the threshold, with the Ministry directly awarding the contract to Day 1 People Limited. The procurement process, classified under 'services', began its award stage on 2nd February 2026, following the completion of the tender period on 9th January 2026. Services will be delivered across several locations, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and Europe. The contract period extends from 2nd February to 31st May 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, mainly those providing professional services within the defence sector. Given the single tender action procurement method, companies with established reputations and strong previous relations with government bodies may find similar opportunities ideal for expansion.
