Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed a contract award process for the Land Systems Reference Centre (LSRC) contract renewal, aimed at sourcing an external supplier to provide operational services for a test and reference facility. This procurement, classified under IT services (consulting, software development, Internet and support), was conducted through a limited competitive quotation method due to its below-threshold value of £22 million GBP. The tender period concluded on 10 January 2019, with the contract set to begin on 1 April 2019 and end on 31 March 2024, located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. Airbus Defence and Space Limited was awarded the contract, amounting to approximately £19.6 million GBP, following the updated award notice published on 31 January 2019.

This opportunity is particularly relevant for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in IT services, as the contract renewal reflects ongoing demand within the public sector for innovative technology solutions. Businesses that can provide consulting, software development, and support services will find this tender aligns well with their capabilities. Engaging in similar public contracts can enhance their visibility, foster growth, and establish a foothold in governmental procurement, paving the way for future collaborations with key defence bodies.
