UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leidos Supply Limited, working on behalf of the UK Ministry of Defence through Team Leidos, intends to procure pollution control sorbents for use across the United Kingdom. The requirement is primarily for goods used in pollution and oil-spillage control, with associated decontamination equipment and environmental or oil-pollution-related services included in the classification. The procurement forms part of the logistics commodities and services transformation programme, which covers procurement and inventory management of commodity items, alongside storage and distribution services. TVS Supply Chain Solutions Limited will conduct various parts of the evaluation. The work is therefore suited to suppliers able to provide pollution-control consumables or related equipment and support for UK-wide defence logistics and inventory operations.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the buyer has announced an intention to procure, rather than inviting tenders. The planned requirement is one lot and is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The estimated value is £3,120,000 to £7,800,000 excluding VAT, or £3,744,000 to £9,360,000 including VAT. The anticipated contract period is 14 April 2033 to 14 April 2037. Team Leidos expects to publish the next notice on 12 September 2028 and plans to issue a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice nearer to tender launch, so suppliers can help develop the requirement and sourcing strategy. Suppliers are asked not to contact Team Leidos about this notice at this stage.

This will suit suppliers with established capability in pollution-control sorbents, oil-spillage response products, decontamination equipment or related environmental services. Businesses should be able to support a UK-wide requirement and demonstrate reliable supply, product availability and the operational capacity needed for defence logistics, inventory management, storage and distribution arrangements. Experience supplying commodity items into complex public-sector, industrial or defence environments would be relevant, particularly where consistent specification, traceability and dependable fulfilment are important. Environmental training or specialist oil-pollution support may also be relevant to the classified scope. SMEs are expressly considered suitable for the single lot. The planned market engagement will be the appropriate point for interested suppliers to help shape the requirement before the future tender.
