UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "The Supply of Menstruation Products" is being planned by LEIDOS SUPPLY, LIMITED, a key player in delivering logistics and commodities services for the UK Ministry of Defence. Classified under personal care products, this process falls within the goods industry category. The procurement is managed under the regulations of public procurement and is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date anticipated by 13 January 2028. The delivery of goods is expected to commence on 10 June 2032, with operations running through to 10 June 2036. The contract holds an estimated value ranging from £2,400,000 to £5,400,000, including VAT. This procurement is set in the UK and is a part of the broader Logistics Commodities and Services (Transformation) initiative delivered by Team Leidos. It offers a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those focused on personal care products, to engage in a long-term supply agreement with the central government.

This tender provides a substantial business growth opportunity, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in the production and supply of personal care products. As the procurement entails a pivotal role in supplying menstruation products under a multi-year contract, it offers stability and potential for significant revenue. The involvement with Team Leidos and the Ministry of Defence also positions successful suppliers for future opportunities within government contracts. Suppliers with a strong alignment to UK supply chains and capabilities in large-scale product delivery would be well-suited to compete. Given the advance planning and clarity of dates, businesses can prepare strategically to meet the forthcoming requirements and seize this opportunity in government procurement.
