Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is initiating a procurement process for the supply of Apache AH-64E toolkits, originally scheduled for a total of 176 toolkits over two years, with deliveries planned for September 2020, January 2021, and July 2022. The procurement method is selective, following a restricted procedure, with the contract valued at £945,000. The tender period is set to close on 29 June 2020, and the contract itself will commence on 13 August 2020 and end on 31 July 2022. This procurement falls within the security, fire-fighting, police and defence equipment industry category, primarily based in the UK, Isle of Man, Guernsey, and Jersey.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the manufacture and supply of defence equipment, particularly those dealing with machine and power tools. Companies that can demonstrate capability in providing specific toolkits for military applications may find themselves well positioned to respond, given the precise specifications laid out in the contract documents. The focus on cyber security and risk assessment further highlights the need for suppliers to adhere to stringent quality and security standards, opening doors for businesses equipped to meet these demands.

Supply of Apache AH-64E Toolkits - ABANDONED COMPETITION

Notice Description

ABANDONED COMPETITION In accordance with Regulation 33 (9) Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 we advise you that we no longer intend to continue with this competitive procurement process commenced by the OJEU Notice dispatched on 10 April 2020 under reference 2020/S 072-173692 for the above Contract for the following reasons. It has come to the Authority's attention during the ITT process via clarification questions, that there are issues with obsolescence for specific items in the Authority's requirement. The Authority is currently unable to provide the information required by all tenderers to allow responses to the ITT in relation to these obsolescence issues. The Authority would also not be able to complete a full technical evaluation on obsolete items in the requirement. The Authority will be reviewing future procurement options.
