Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has concluded a procurement process for the maintenance of rotary lobe pumps at DM Beith, located in Scotland, United Kingdom. Classified under the industry category of rotary pumps, this contract was awarded through a direct procurement method, specifically a single tender action below threshold. The contracting process was completed with an award status on 5th September 2025, and the maintenance contract will span from 5th September 2025 to 4th September 2026. This is a service-related procurement, with a contract value of GBP 42,944.24. The award was published on 17th September 2025, following the end of the tender period on 23rd May 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the maintenance of industrial pumps within the UK, especially those with expertise in rotary lobe pump maintenance. While the contract has been awarded to Alfa Laval, a large-scale enterprise, the nature of the direct procurement method highlights potential future opportunities for companies with the capability to provide efficient and specialised services to the Ministry of Defence. Businesses operating at a large scale with established expertise in similar services would be well-suited for such procurement opportunities. Additionally, although this particular opportunity was not suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, keeping abreast of future tenders from the Ministry of Defence could open up avenues for businesses of various sizes aiming to expand within the public sector.
