## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has awarded a contract for the project "ASURVEY" to DONECLE, for aircraft maintenance services. The contract, valued at £84,000 GBP, was awarded through a single-source procurement method, with a contract period starting on 13th March 2023 and ending on 12th March 2024.

This contract presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specializing in aircraft maintenance services to grow their business. Businesses with expertise in fast, accurate, and detailed damage mapping of external airframe damage, particularly for military aircraft like the RAF's Poseidon MRA-Mk1, would be well-suited to compete for future similar tenders. Understanding the specific needs of government defense contracts and demonstrating capabilities for automated aircraft inspections will be advantageous for companies looking to secure contracts in this sector.
