Summary of the contracting process

Leidos Supply is spearheading a procurement process to source Oils, Lubricants, Greases, and Additives for the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD), under the logistics commodities and services transformation (LCS(T)) Delivery partnership. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, and a Prior Information Notice (PIN) has been issued as of 30th August 2024. The anticipated commencement date for the framework agreement is 1st January 2026, running until 1st January 2030. The framework, estimated to be valued between £26.6m and £66.5m, covers engine oils, gear oils, hydraulic fluids, and other related products. Deliveries will be accepted across multiple regions including the British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, the United Kingdom, and globally.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs, specialising in the production and supply of lubricating oils and similar agents. The procurement process, though in the early stages, aims to attract interest and gather market insights to ensure effective fulfilment of the MOD’s requirements. Businesses with capabilities in producing high-quality oils and chemicals, and those with a global delivery capacity, would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this procurement process could open long-term collaborative opportunities and drive growth by aligning with a major defence contract.
