Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed the award stage for the "Merlin Out of Service Extension Programme Assessment Phase" contract, aimed at undertaking the Assessment Phase of the OSDEP Programme. The procurement falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services of helicopters (CPV: 50212000) and is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom with postal code BA20 2YB. This contract is valued at £1,000,000 GBP and was procured using a negotiated procedure without prior publication. The contract period is set to commence on 27 February 2024 and will conclude on 27 February 2025.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in helicopter repair and maintenance services, particularly large-scale enterprises. As the contract involves a substantial amount of funding and a defined project period, companies with expertise in aviation services, particularly in military sectors, would find this procurement beneficial for expanding their portfolios and establishing further collaboration with the Ministry of Defence. However, this opportunity is not well-suited for SMEs or VCSEs due to its scale and specific requirements. The awarded supplier, Lockheed Martin UK, reflects the significant capability needed to fulfil the contract requirements.
