Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has awarded a contract titled "NDHD Hardware Trial 2" for the trial of hardware. This procurement falls under the industry category of Hardware (CPV 44316400) and is located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement followed an open procedure (below threshold) and has moved to the Award stage as of 14th January 2025. The tender period concluded on 25th October 2024, and the contract period spans from 6th January 2025 to 31st March 2025. The awarded value for the contract is £1 GBP.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in providing hardware trials, particularly those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The Ministry of Defence, acting as the buying organisation, seeks to trial specific hardware, creating growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in this sector. Given the open procurement method, this tender was accessible to a wide range of businesses, although the contract was eventually awarded to boxxe Limited, a large supplier. Businesses suited for future similar procurements should have capabilities in hardware provision and a readiness to work within the specified contract periods.
