Notice Title

The Supply of Combat Garments - RN FR

Notice Description

Team Leidos are proud to be delivering the logistics commodities and services transformation (LCS(T)) Delivery partner contracts (LCS (T)/0001 dated 16.4.2015) on behalf of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) (the 'Prime Contract'). Delivery of other parts of the LCS(T) contract are delivered by Leidos Europe Ltd (LEL) and other partners (together 'Team Leidos'). This requirement is subject to the Public Procurement Regulations and respective advertising action. The Defence Clothing Team, which forms part of Leidos Supply Ltd. is considering the potential requirement for the supply of Combat Garments - RN FR on behalf of the UK MoD. The total estimated value for this Framework Agreement will be between PS29,548,000 and PS73,869,000. The agreement will have an initial term of 5 years (60 months) with an option to extend incrementally for up to a total period of 1 year (12 months). In addition, please note that as a framework agreement there is no guarantee of business. If this is of further interest, please register on our eProcurement system, Jaggaer: https://leidos-supply.app.jaggaer.com Bidders will be able to register on the system, and once registered they can express their interest and complete their bid on there. Should Bidders have any queries regarding the system, please contact the support team on the front page of the Jaggaer website, where it says 'Need assistance?', for help. Anyqueries regarding the tender itself, as opposed to the system, should be directed through Jaggaer's messaging centre. This procurement follows the withdrawal of an earlier tender exercise (where market engagement was carried out as part of that tender exercise). Whilst the intention had been to resume the current procurement, this is not feasible within the structure of the original tender exercise and so Team Leidos determined that re-starting the procurement, rather than un-pausing the previous exercise, was the most appropriate approach in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. No further preliminary market engagement has been carried out in advance of the re-issued procurement, and accordingly no Preliminary Market Engagement Notice has been published, as permitted under sections 16 and 17 of the Procurement Act 2023.
