Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence (MoD), specifically the Land Equipment and Armoured Vehicles Programmes team based in Bristol, is currently advancing a procurement process for "Technical Maintenance and Repair Support for the AJAX MSI Range Instrumentation Package." This tender is classified under the services category, particularly focusing on the repair and maintenance services of precision equipment. The tender period concluded on 20th October 2017, while the associated contract is set to commence on 2nd January 2018, with an end date of 2nd January 2020. The maximum contract value is £113,000, and it will be awarded through a selective and negotiated procurement method.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in technical maintenance and repair services, particularly those with expertise in precision instrumentation and military equipment. Since the contract will be awarded to a single source supplier that meets stringent technical regulations, businesses with in-depth knowledge and capabilities related to the design and manufacture of range instrumentation systems could strongly compete. Moreover, companies equipped to fulfill specific requirements with unique calibration tools and software access are well-positioned to leverage this opportunity to grow and expand in the defence contracting sector.
