Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has concluded a public procurement process for the life cycle replacement of 350 KVA generators at the British Army Training Unit Kenya (BATUK). This procurement falls under the industry category of 'Installation services of generators', with the contracting activity classified under CPV code 51111200. The open procedure process, conducted below the threshold, attracted a contract value of £193,000. The award phase of the contract was completed, and the contract was actively awarded to a large scale supplier as of 24th June 2025. The procurement-related activities covered a wide geographic area, including British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom, with the central contact and buying operations managed from Kentigern House, Glasgow, UK.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in generator installation and related logistics. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in these areas would find this contract particularly lucrative and aligned with their capabilities, as the procurement process welcomed SME participation. Given the Ministry of Defence as the buying authority, businesses that can demonstrate reliability, compliance, and experience in dealing with large-scale public sector contracts may find additional opportunities for similar future procurements. The contract, starting on 28th June 2025 and ending on 28th October 2025, provides a platform for growth through successful delivery and long-term engagement with the Ministry of Defence.
