Summary of the contracting process

The UK Ministry of Defence is seeking to extend its existing contract for the Supply of Rough Terrain Forklift Trucks (RTFL) with Finning UK Ltd, originally scheduled to expire on 6th May 2021, for an additional 12 months. This decision, made on 21st April 2021, is under the limited procurement method due to the necessity of continued support for the current equipment fleet, ensuring operational safety while the authority prepares a competitive procurement process anticipated before the extended contract period concludes. The total estimated value of this extension is £0.156 million, and the contract falls under the category of goods within the transport equipment industry.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in the supply of heavy transport equipment and support services in the defence sector. Companies with the capability to provide robust and reliable forklift solutions would be well-suited to compete in future tendering opportunities, especially given the Ministry of Defence's intention to conduct comprehensive competitive procurement activities for long-term requirements. Engaging with this contracting authority could enhance supplier relationships and open avenues for larger contracts within the government sector.
