Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence procured DPKI Support Services, classified under military electronic systems (CPV 35700000). The requirement is treated as a goods procurement and concerns support for DPKI systems; the title identifies the service requirement, while the classification places it within defence-related electronic systems. Delivery is associated with MOD Corsham in Corsham, England, and the wider South West of England. This is therefore relevant to businesses supplying or supporting military electronic systems, defence technology and related operational equipment. The buying organisation is the Ministry of Defence, with the work connected to its Corsham site. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although it is not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This procurement has been awarded and is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 12 June 2026 at 5pm, and the contract was awarded on 19 June 2026. Unsung Limited was selected for an award of £4,989,600. The contract runs from 26 June 2026 to 28 June 2029. The available procurement information identifies the requirement and its framework call-off route, but does not set out detailed award criteria beyond that route. The awarded requirement covers the DPKI Support Services contract for the Ministry of Defence and is associated with MOD Corsham in Corsham.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement indicates demand from the Ministry of Defence for specialist support connected with military electronic systems and DPKI operations. Credible competitors would need a demonstrable ability to deliver dependable defence-related electronic systems support, maintain service continuity and work within the Ministry’s operational and security environment. Experience of framework call-offs would be commercially relevant, since this requirement was purchased through that route. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs, so smaller specialist firms may be well placed where they can evidence the required technical capability, delivery capacity and assurance arrangements. Larger suppliers may also compete where they can provide resilient support at the scale required by a national defence customer.
