Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) is overseeing the "TacSys Resource Partner (TRP)" contract, which aims to deliver capabilities for various military operations under the Government and Defence Major Projects Portfolio. This contract, classified under "Government services" (CPV code 75131000), is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process, using a selective and competitive procedure with negotiation, concluded with the awarding stage on 20th September 2024. The contract, valued at £150 million and minimum value of £39,541,104, spans from 14th August 2024 to 13th August 2027. The tender provides output-based support through a flexible commercial model and encourages competition from Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary and Community Sector Enterprises (VCSEs).

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses looking to penetrate the defence sector, offering potential growth through extensive project scopes ranging from frontline tactical communication systems to wide area battlefield communications. Companies in the communications technology, defence contracting, and systems integration industries are well-suited to compete for future tenders, given the complexity and scale of the projects involved. The Ministry of Defence's collaboration with large-scale supplier QinetiQ Ltd further underscores the significant potential for partnerships and subcontracting opportunities within the specified contract period.
