Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is currently engaged in a limited procurement process for the provision of interim Land Rover spares, titled "Interim Land Rover Spares". This procurement falls under the industry category of parts and accessories for vehicles and their engines, and it is classified as a goods procurement. The process follows a negotiated method without the publication of a contract notice, and the procurement is in the award stage. The contract, valued at £4,500,000, was signed on 23rd July 2021, and the overall tender exercise is expected to conclude by late 2021.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in automotive parts, particularly those with capabilities in supplying reliable Land Rover components that meet strict safety and performance standards. Supplier entities like Hobson Industries Ltd, which have established connections with Original Equipment Manufacturers and can ensure compliance with the Ministry of Defence's specifications, would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. With the ongoing demand for quality Land Rover spares, interested suppliers can leverage this opportunity to enhance their business growth and presence in the defence supply sector.

Notice Title

Interim Land Rover Spares

Notice Description

Interim arrangement for the Procurement of Land Rover Spares

Procurement Information

A requirement for supply of Land Rover spares was subject to a competitive tender exercise by Babcock Land Defence Limited (formerly Babcock DSG Ltd) in 2019 under the Service Provision and Transformation Contract (SPTC) in place with UK MoD. However, VST identified discrepancies within its existing Land Rover Bill of Materials - raising concerns with the standard of components being supplied which could potentially impact the safe and reliable operation of the vehicle fleet - and the competition was cancelled. UK MoD has now reviewed the Bill of Materials and cleansed its data systems through removal of non-conforming parts, enabling Babcock Land Defence Limited to commence a new competitive tender exercise for the supply of Land Rover spares on behalf of UK MoD. This is now underway and expected to conclude in late 2021. Whilst therefore acknowledging that other Suppliers exist in the market, the associated delays have resulted in a prolonged capability gap that prevents UK MoD from safely maintaining and supporting its operational Land Rover vehicle fleet - hence there is a need for a further interim contract for the supply of Land Rover spares. Hobson Industries Ltd have a proven ability to supply such spares to the required specification, reliability and safety standards - ensuring the vehicle configuration aligns with the original approved systems that underpin the endorsed platform safety case - with timely access to Jaguar Land Rover, the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).
