Summary of the contracting process

The Defence Equipment and Support organisation, a division within the UK's central government, is currently in the planning phase for the BBMF Integrated Support Programme (BISAP) concerning LANCASTER Aircraft Depth Maintenance, Components, and Post Design Services. This procurement process, tagged as 'planned', sets forth services aimed at maintaining aircraft and related components, with a focus on the LANCASTER aircraft. The anticipated contract period runs from 1st May 2028 to 30th April 2031, with possibilities for renewal until 30th April 2033. The proposed services fall into the industry category of repair and maintenance, particularly targeting aircraft maintenance, with operations based primarily in the United Kingdom, specifically the UKF3 region. As of 31st January 2028, future notices are expected to be communicated, providing additional details and deadlines related to the tender.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in aircraft maintenance services and repair projects. The substantial budget allocation of £3,600,000, with a gross amount of £3,000,000, indicates a lucrative contract size that can foster business growth and expand service offerings in the aviation sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are specifically highlighted as suitable contenders, suggesting the potential for smaller firms to leverage this opportunity to enter or expand their footprint within government service contracts. Engaging in this process can enhance industry presence, promote technical advancement, and offer long-term partnership prospects with a leading public authority in defence equipment and support. For businesses adept at managing comprehensive maintenance services and offering component availability, this planned procurement presents a promising avenue to showcase expertise and establish enduring collaborations.
