Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for managing Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) at Ministry of Defence (MOD) locations for the fiscal year 2025/26 has concluded, with the award finalised on 19th May 2025. The contract was awarded to Qinetiq, a large company, through a call-off from a framework agreement. This selective procurement method focused on siteworks within the sector and entails work beginning on 19th May 2025 and concluding by 31st March 2026. The Ministry of Defence, based in Huntingdon, England, served as the buying organisation. The project is categorized under the 'works' industry, with the primary location being in the South West region of the United Kingdom.

The tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in siteworks and related fields, particularly those able to engage with government frameworks. While this contract was awarded to a large company, the structure of such tenders can offer insight into potential collaborations or sub-contracting opportunities for SMEs within the government sector, which may not align specifically with the current contract's suitability criteria. Such procurement processes often necessitate specialised knowledge in environmental management and operational capability at secured defence sites, adding value for businesses with experience in these areas.
