UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leidos Supply Limited is seeking suppliers for the supply and support of C1A automated external defibrillators (AEDs) for the UK Ministry of Defence. This is a medical equipment requirement, covering the devices and their associated support; the detailed Schedule of Requirements defines the items to be covered. The procurement forms part of Leidos’ delivery of logistics commodities and services for the Ministry of Defence. Delivery is required in the United Kingdom. TVS Supply Chain Solutions is conducting parts of the evaluation. The requirement is for goods and is organised as a single lot. Small and medium-sized businesses are considered suitable to compete. The arrangement is a framework, so appointment does not guarantee a volume of work.

Leidos invited bids through an open procedure. The process has reached tender, with offers invited. Bidders were able to submit electronically through the Jaggaer e-procurement system in English. The enquiry deadline was 10 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the bid deadline was 17 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period is 18 May 2027 to 17 May 2031. The estimated framework value is £250,000 excluding VAT (£300,000 including VAT). Qualification questions are pass/fail; bidders must pass every question to proceed. The technical evaluation requires at least 60% on weighted questions. Prices are assessed only after qualification and technical stages. Leidos intends to award at least one contract and may award multiple contracts to cover the required items and achieve value for money.

This opportunity suits suppliers able to provide C1A automated external defibrillators and support them for a public-sector defence requirement. The buyer identifies small and medium-sized businesses as suitable, and the single-lot structure gives suppliers a route to compete for the requirement as a whole. Suppliers need to demonstrate compliance with every pass/fail qualification question, then produce technical responses that meet the 60% benchmark for weighted questions; only those passing both stages have prices assessed. The potential supplier should be able to cover the relevant items in the Schedule of Requirements and offer value for money. The framework may appoint more than one supplier to secure full coverage, but appointment does not guarantee orders or a particular share of business. No specific accreditation or prior-experience requirement is stated in the procurement details.
