UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice is planning a procurement process for the supply of in-cell kettles, aimed at serving public sector prisons across England, Wales, and Scotland. This process, with an estimated gross value of £5,300,000, is in the planning stage scheduled to commence with a contract period from 1st January 2026 to 31st December 2032. Potential suppliers were initially invited to a Supplier Day on 2nd July 2025 at the MOJ offices in Leeds, though this engagement has been cancelled for further review. Prospective participants should look forward to future notices regarding the tender outlined for electrical domestic appliances with a focus on above-threshold goods delivery. The registration of interest was anticipated by the end of July 2025, with further updates expected by 12th September 2025.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs adept in manufacturing and supplying electrical domestic appliances. Companies capable of fulfilling large-scale orders while ensuring compliance with public sector procurement regulations would find this project well-suited for leveraging their expertise and expanding their reach within the public sector framework. As the procurement process progresses, interested parties are encouraged to monitor further communications from the Ministry of Justice to ensure readiness for participation in this competitive business environment.
