Summary of the contracting process

The Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) is currently in the planning stage of a tender process for construction works at RAF Odiham, aimed at developing facilities for military working dogs, their handlers, and support staff. This project, titled "Works Contractor Military Working Dogs Odiham," is part of the public authority's central government agenda, classified under the construction work for military buildings and installations industry category. The planned contract period is from 1st August 2029 to 1st August 2031, with a future notice date set for 31st July 2029. The procurement process is initiated as a tender which is set out under the legal framework UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses skilled in constructing military installations, particularly those able to deliver on specialised requirements for military working dogs’ facilities. Companies with experience in construction services for defence infrastructure will find themselves well-suited to compete. Given the project's scope and specific needs, enterprises that have a proven track record in handling public contracts with central government bodies may have a competitive advantage, potentially leading to long-term benefits and partnerships with the Ministry of Defence. This venture encourages firms that can adhere to stringent timelines and government compliance regulations, presenting an opportunity for growth and expansion within the public procurement domain.
