Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves a Multiple Supplier Framework Agreement for the Calibration and Repair of Test Equipment used across the UK Ministry of Defence's Tri-Service community, managed by Babcock International Group PLC. The tender, identified as LSBU15/0133, falls under the "Repair and maintenance services of measuring, testing and checking apparatus" category with a total value of £20,000,000. It was published on 18 December 2017 and includes a contract period starting from 5 April 2018 for two years, with a possible extension of an additional two years. The tender indicates a selective procurement method, which has a submission deadline of 24 January 2018, and the work will primarily be conducted in the West Midlands region of the UK.
