Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence seeking the provision of a Remotely Piloted Aerial System (RPAS) along with software and support. This contract, which has already been awarded, falls under the goods category specifically classified as military aircrafts. The procurement method was conducted as a limited negotiation without prior publication of a contract notice, indicating a restricted procedure due to the lack of suitable tenders. The contract was signed on 18th June 2020, with a total value of £68,600 and relates to operations in the UKH region.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in defence and security equipment, particularly those capable of delivering military-grade technology and support services. Companies with expertise in aerial systems and associated software solutions would be ideally positioned to compete in this space. The involvement of a major contracting authority like the Ministry of Defence also points to potential future collaborations for firms that can demonstrate reliability and innovation in providing advanced technological solutions.
