UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, under the management of LEIDOS SUPPLY, LIMITED, a public authority under the central government of the United Kingdom. The tender is for "The Supply of DEXIS IXS Digital Intra Oral Sensors," classified in the medical equipment industry, specifically dental X-ray and medical imaging services. The procurement is taking place in the UK with an estimated value of £8,404,903, and follows an open procurement method. The tender is announced with the end date of 15th June 2026, while the enquiry period closes on 8th June. This contract is notably part of a larger commitment by the Ministry of Defence (MOD) to ensure compatibility within its existing IT infrastructure over a contract period planned to start on 27th October 2026 and end on 27th October 2030.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for companies that supply or distribute medical imaging and dental X-ray equipment. It is particularly suited for businesses that can provide the specialised DEXIS IXS sensors, which are necessary for MOD compatibility requirements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the continued competition among approved distributors at the distribution level despite the direct award for OEM compatibility. Participation can be beneficial for suppliers looking to strengthen their foothold in defence and security procurement, providing long-term inventory management and distribution capabilities for critical government infrastructure needs.

Notice Information

Notice Title

The Supply of DEXIS IXS Digital Intra Oral Sensors

Notice Description

In April 2015 the MOD signed a thirteen year contract with Leidos Europe Ltd to provide the procurement and inventory management of commodity items (as well as the storage and distribution services) historically provided in-house by the Logistic Commodities and Services Operating Centre. Leidos, working with the MOD, will transform the way these services are delivered to ensure requirements continue to be met whilst providing best value for money for the department. The organisation delivering these services is known as Team Leidos. The Requirement is to procure DEXIS IXS sensors which have already been 'whitelisted' for use within existing MOD IT infrastructure. Estimated quantities: 687 units The DEXIS IXS sensor has been MOD directed due to compatibility with existing MOD IT systems. Introducing alternatives would require extensive IT re integration resulting in significant additional cost, delay, and delivery risk. LSL is therefore proceeding via a Direct Award in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. Under Condition 41, Schedule 5 (Direct Award Justifications), "Changing supplier would create disproportionate technical difficulties, incompatibility risks and Significant delay. "These conditions would apply if an alternative to the DEXIS sensor were introduced. For clarity, the reference to "changing supplier" within the Procurement Act 2023 relates to a change in the OEM, in line with the requirement. Competition will continue to be maintained at the distributor level, with procurement conducted among approved distributors in the market. The purpose of this tender notice is to ensure all interested companies, suppliers, and manufacturers are aware of this opportunity.
