UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leidos Supply Limited intends to procure jerricans and associated consumables for delivery across the United Kingdom. The requirement is for goods used within the Ministry of Defence logistics commodities and services transformation programme, which covers procurement and inventory management of commodity items, alongside storage and distribution services. The items are described as light containers and related products, including basic metal containers and associated components. Team Leidos is delivering the wider logistics service on behalf of the Ministry of Defence, with Leidos Supply acting as the buyer and TVS Supply Chain Solutions supporting parts of the evaluation. The procurement is intended to support the continued supply of commodity items within the transformed logistics service.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the buyer has declared an intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The planned agreement is expected to run as a single lot, with an indicative contract period from 7 September 2032 to 8 September 2036. Its estimated value is between £486,080 and £1,215,200 excluding VAT, or between £583,296 and £1,458,240 including VAT. The buyer expects to publish the next notice on 15 December 2027. A Preliminary Market Engagement Notice is planned closer to the tender launch, to help suppliers contribute to development of the requirement and sourcing strategy. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This requirement is likely to suit manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of jerricans, light metal containers and associated consumables, particularly businesses able to support public-sector or defence supply chains. Relevant strengths include reliable sourcing or production, consistent product quality, stock availability and the ability to manage repeat supply of commodity items. Experience in inventory management, warehousing, logistics or distribution may be useful because the requirement sits within a wider service covering storage and movement of supplies. The planned market engagement should help capable suppliers understand and influence the developing requirement and sourcing strategy. Small and medium-sized businesses are specifically identified as suitable, so firms without the scale of a major prime may wish to prepare evidence of product capability, capacity and dependable fulfilment before the procurement reaches the market.
