Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence, located in Corsham, United Kingdom, concluded a procurement process titled "SRT GFx Works at HMNB Clyde" with the award made on 23rd September 2025. This contract, classified under the IT services industry, was awarded to AtkinsRéalis UK Limited for a value of £90,000. The procurement focused on delivering Government Furnished Assets to enable a new CORE network installation at HMNB Clyde. The project falls under a services category and involved AtkinsRéalis due to their previously completed related work for Defence Digital. It is in the award stage, having utilised a limited procurement method without prior competition notice, which was deemed outside the scope of EU directives. The process is noteworthy for its strategic importance and urgency due to its role in ensuring the continued delivery of critical Fixed Network programmes.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, specifically those involved in consulting, software development, and network support. Companies like AtkinsRéalis, which have previous experience and completed projects for the Ministry of Defence, are well-positioned to benefit. The focus on quick and efficient service delivery underscores the demand for firms capable of managing complex installations while adhering to stringent timelines. Although the asbestos handling responsibilities remain with the buyer, the overall scope offers lucrative prospects for companies with the expertise to implement core network upgrades in challenging environments, making this an attractive opportunity for SMEs operating within the defence and IT sectors.
