UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is procuring advanced driver training for RAF Logistics drivers who transport fuel in airfield and road tankers. The requirement is for five Advanced Driver Training Anti-Roll Over courses each year, providing specialist driving instruction and supporting compliance with petroleum industry requirements. The service includes anti-rollover training for drivers operating fuel-tanker vehicles, alongside the associated driving-test and driving-school activity. The work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a services opportunity for providers of advanced commercial driver training, particularly those able to train drivers handling fuel tankers and other high-risk or specialist vehicles. The requirement is intended to maintain and improve the driving standards of RAF Logistics personnel.

The procurement has reached tender: the Ministry of Defence invited offers through an open procedure. Enquiries had to be submitted by 4 August 2026 at 12:00, and tenders had to be submitted by 28 August 2026 at 12:00 through the Defence Sourcing Portal, with free registration required. The contract is one lot, running from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. Its estimated value is £236,556.42 including VAT, or £197,130.35 excluding VAT. The award decision was due by 16 November 2026 at 23:59. The contract will be awarded to the most advantageous tender using a value-for-money index, calculated from tender cost divided by the non-cost quality and technical score. Quality and technical performance therefore form part of the evaluation.

This opportunity suits specialist driver-training organisations with proven capability in advanced commercial vehicle instruction, anti-rollover techniques and the safe operation of fuel-tanker vehicles. Suppliers should be able to provide five courses per year and deliver training to the required standard for drivers transporting petroleum products on airfields and public roads. Experience of petroleum-industry driving requirements, high-risk vehicle environments, practical assessment and driving-test services would be relevant. The requirement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises, so it may be accessible to organisations beyond large national training providers. Bidders will need to demonstrate a strong quality and technical offer, because these factors influence the value-for-money evaluation alongside price.
