Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the maintenance of the Kongsberg Propulsion System by the Home Office has been completed, with a direct award contract given to Kongsberg Maritime Limited. This contract involves the repair and maintenance of installed Kongsberg equipment and systems and is categorised under services related to marine equipment. The Home Office, located at 2 Marsham Street, London, acted as the purchasing entity, while the supplier Kongsberg Maritime Limited is based at Thermopylae House, Prospect Road, Westhill. This procurement stage is the award, and notable dates include the award notice published on 3rd June 2025, with the contract period running from 5th June 2025 to 31st March 2030. The direct procurement method justified by Kongsberg's status as the OEM assures quality and standardisation.

This tender opens opportunities for businesses specialising in marine equipment and repair services to potentially engage in similar contracts, particularly as subcontractors or service providers, even if not direct suppliers. Large businesses with capabilities in marine technology integration, maintenance, and part standardisation could find beneficial partnerships or growth avenues, given the substantial contract value of GBP 200,000. The procurement process indicates avenues for those in the repair and maintenance service industry to specialise in OEM partnerships, providing comprehensive service solutions and warranties that are sought by primary procurement authorities. Understanding the procurement nuances and direct award justifications could guide businesses in positioning themselves effectively for future opportunities.
