Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is currently undertaking a procurement process for the "Dreadnought Project", which involves the original equipment manufacturer for the Transformer Rectifier Distribution Unit and battery back-up system for the Astute submarines and the new Dreadnought fleet. This tender falls within the security, fire-fighting, police, and defence equipment sector and is located in Calne, South West England.
