Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by KBS Maritime Ltd, involves the purchase of 60Hz Transformers required for the Portsmouth Naval Base. This tender is currently in the 'Tender' stage, with a publication date of 4th June 2026. The procurement falls under the industry category for Transformers (CPV code: 31170000). Interested parties must submit their tenders by 30th June 2026. The procurement method is selective, utilising a restricted procedure, and the contract period is from 1st July 2026 to 2nd July 2026. The procurement is valued at £250,000 and will require delivery to various locations including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and Rest of the World.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in electrical transformers and those capable of handling international logistics. While the procurement process method is selective, businesses that can adhere to the restricted procedure are strongly encouraged to participate. Companies that have previous experience in similar contracts with naval or defence organisations, and those that can assert reliability and adherence to international delivery standards, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. This opportunity is aimed more towards larger organisations rather than SMEs or VCSEs, offering a chance for significant business growth within a high-profile governmental project.
