Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by the Ministry of Defence involved a potential framework agreement for the "Repair of Run-Flats and Special to-type Wheel/Tyre Assemblies," classified under the CPV code 50116000 for maintenance and repair services of specific vehicle parts. The procurement, initiated as a tender, followed a restricted procedure under the Defence and Security Public Contract Regulations 2011. Originally intended to span four years with an option to extend for up to seven years, the procurement was headquartered in Telford, UK. However, as of 28th November 2025, the tender activity was announced as abandoned, with a prior issue date of 15th October 2024. This decision was made for transparency purposes, and the opportunity was advertised on platforms like the Defence Sourcing Portal.

This tender, although now abandoned, highlighted opportunities for businesses specializing in vehicle maintenance and repair services, particularly those capable of supplying spares and components and holding relevant certifications such as ISO 9001:2015. The original procurement was relevant to businesses with expertise in defence vehicle platforms like Cougar, Foxhound, and Panther. While the tender is no longer active, future similar opportunities may benefit businesses ready to meet high-quality standards and demonstrate capability in managing secure and complex logistic operations. Engaging in such public procurement contracts can provide significant business growth potential, especially for firms with a robust approach to delivering within defence sector frameworks.
