UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence's Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) is in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "MOD Airfield Criteria Survey - Measuring Heights - UK1." This project involves an annual programme of Defence Aerodrome Aeronautical Information Surveys, which incorporates Measured Height Surveys and Radio Site Protection surveys. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically survey services (CPV code 79311000). It is planned for execution across the United Kingdom, with a gross value of £897,000. The contract period is scheduled from 1st July 2025 to 1st July 2028. A future notice date is set for 23rd May 2025, for further communication.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in survey services, especially those capable of engaging in aerodrome assessments and height measurement projects. With an emphasis on survey services, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Successful engagement could not only provide direct growth through contract revenue but also add prestige and experience in dealings with a central government public authority like the DIO, potentially opening doors to further government contracts.
