Summary of the contracting process

Leidos Supply Limited intends to procure electrical components and associated electrical equipment and apparatus for the UK Ministry of Defence logistics commodities and services transformation programme. The requirement forms part of Team Leidos’ work to procure and manage commodity items, alongside storage and distribution services, on behalf of the Ministry of Defence. The buyer is Leidos Supply Limited, with TVS Supply Chain Solutions Limited conducting parts of the evaluation. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. This is a goods requirement, classified under CPV 31600000. The planned procurement concerns one package of electrical components and is intended to support ongoing defence logistics and inventory management activities.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Leidos Supply Limited has stated an intention to procure in the future, with the tender planned rather than invited. The buyer expects to publish the next notice on 14 July 2027 and to issue a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice nearer the tender launch, allowing suppliers to help develop the requirement and sourcing strategy. The estimated value is £350,000 excluding VAT, or £420,000 including VAT. The planned contract is expected to run from 6 April 2032 to 7 April 2036. The procurement is intended to be conducted under the Public Procurement Regulations. One planned package is identified, and the requirement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The requirement should suit suppliers of electrical components and electrical equipment with the capacity to supply the UK-wide defence logistics operation. Businesses able to provide reliable commodity procurement, product availability and inventory support may be well placed when the requirement reaches the market. Experience of supplying public sector, defence or other tightly controlled logistics environments would be relevant, particularly where consistent fulfilment, traceability and dependable supply arrangements are required. The buyer has indicated that supplier input will help shape the requirement and sourcing strategy through planned market engagement. Suppliers should therefore prepare information on their product range, supply-chain resilience, stock and replenishment capability, quality controls and experience supporting large-scale inventory management. The procurement is also identified as suitable for SMEs.
