Summary of the contracting process

The UK Ministry of Defence, represented by Babcock Land Defence Limited, has awarded a three-year Framework Agreement for the repair and recalibration of accelerometer, chemical, flow, and ultrasonic equipment to Allied Aerosystems Limited. This contract, valued at £974,765, was signed on 23rd July 2024, and involves services classified under CPV code 50412000 for the repair and maintenance of testing apparatus. The procurement process was conducted through a negotiated procedure without prior publication due to a failed competition under a previous restricted procedure. The work will be carried out at the Babcock Land Defence Limited facility in MOD Donnington, Telford (UKG21 region).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in the maintenance and repair of complex testing equipment, particularly those with capabilities in accelerometers, chemical, flow, and ultrasonic systems. With the Ministry of Defence as the buying organisation, certifications, and compliance with stringent defence standards will be crucial. SMEs with expertise in this niche industry will be well-suited to compete, especially those that can provide high-quality, reliable services promptly. Given the framework agreement and the potential to add similar items during the contract's lifetime, this tender offers a robust opportunity for long-term business growth and collaboration with the UK defence sector.
