Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed the procurement process for the Electro-Magnetic Detect and Defeat (EMDaD) SME project, with the award of the contract to Teleplan Forsberg Ltd. The contract, valued at £2.75 million, supports the assessment and integration of electronic warfare systems and countermeasures, specifically focusing on electromagnetic capabilities. This selective procurement followed a restricted procedure, ensuring that only appropriately qualified suppliers could compete. Key locations for project delivery include the United Kingdom and its overseas territories. The procurement was concluded with the award notice published on 11 July 2025, and the contract runs from 19 June 2025 to 18 June 2027.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for SMEs specialising in electronic warfare systems and countermeasures. Companies with expertise in testing and evaluation of military electronic systems, and possessing necessary security clearances, would find this contract particularly aligned with their capabilities. The procurement process, designed with SMEs in mind, sought businesses independent of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), ensuring a fair competitive environment favouring innovative solutions. As the project addresses delivery across multiple regions, it represents a substantial opportunity for growth and the expansion of market reach for the contracted company.
