Notice Description

Unite Procurement UK Limited (part of Unite Holding SE), on behalf of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD), invites qualified suppliers to join the Unite Procurement Platform to support the provision of the following items. This onboarding will establish a flexible, competitive supply base for low-value, high-volume procurement. The Unite Procurement Platform (Unite | Simplify indirect procurement with our smarter platform) provides a compliant route to market for UK Public Sector organisations to source approved products efficiently and transparently. Scope of Supply We seek suppliers able to deliver, support, and maintain the following products, including relevant accessories and variants where applicable: * 1095996149805: Knife (Combat) * 8465999690645: Sleeping Bag * 9390993161563: Insignia Patch/Reflective * 7330996160485: Bottle Vacuum * 8465994334810: Sleeping Bag * 6230016614126: Glow Wand * 5120131175031: Saw (Folding) * 5110016601600: Saw (Crosscut One Man) * 8415016615763: Ghillie Suit * 6230016306269: IR/Blue/White Strobe ACR MS2000 (M2) Doublefly Strobe Light/Steady Light/S.O.S Light w/ Blue & IR * 8340998427002: Tent Pegs (sold in packs of 6) * 8465995555722: Jack Pyke Charcoal Hand Warmer Suppliers should be able to demonstrate consistent availability, quality assurance, and after sales support for the above items. Security and Sourcing Given operational sensitivities and supply chain assurance needs, priority will be afforded to UK-based suppliers and manufacturers. This helps maintain supply chain integrity and reduces dependency on overseas sources. Non-UK suppliers may still be considered where risk and assurance requirements are met. Background These items support field operations, training, identification, and survivability. Suppliers should have proven experience serving defence, blue light, or similarly regulated sectors, including robust compliance and traceability practices. Timelines Suppliers are encouraged to express interest by the stated closing date for early consideration. However, applications to join the Unite Procurement Platform are welcome on a rolling basis thereafter. Unite Procurement UK Limited reserves the right to review and onboard new suppliers continuously to meet evolving requirements. Contact For enquiries and expressions of interest, please email: defence.support@unite.eu Please include "Unite Onboarding - Tactical/Outdoor Items" in the subject line and reference the relevant item identifiers from the list above in your submission.
