Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is seeking competitive quotations for the deconstruction of the Mercury Tech Block (AY0015) in Dhekelia, Cyprus. This tender is part of the works category under the CPV code 45111100, which covers demolition work. The tender process has commenced with the call for expressions of interest, which need to be submitted by 1st May 2026, followed by the invitation to tender on 15th May 2026. Key steps in the process include the tender return deadline on 30th June 2026, contract award on 25th September 2026, and the initiation of deconstruction works on 30th October 2026. This project, valued at £650,000, provides a significant business opportunity within the West Midlands, United Kingdom, for companies skilled in large-scale demolition and deconstruction activities, especially those specialising in asbestos removal and environmental controls.

This procurement is well-suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in controlled demolition, waste segregation, and management of temporary works. Companies previously involved in deconstruction and developmental tasks involving electromechanical strip-outs and structural steel dismantling should consider this opportunity. The competitive quotation method, which features a limited procurement approach, encourages participation from capable SMEs not needing to surpass the typical threshold. Businesses with recent completion of a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) are favoured, and such companies only need to provide their last submission details. Engaging in this tender could enhance visibility and growth through association with the Ministry of Defence and the execution of complex, high-profile projects such as the demolition of the Mercury Tech Block.
