This procurement falls under the goods category and is currently in the Tender stage. The estimated value of the contract is £10 million, and the tender submission period ends on 9 October 2018. The contract is projected to commence on 14 December 2018 and will last for four years. Prospective suppliers are chosen through a selective procurement method, having passed a Dynamic Pre-qualification Questionnaire to compete for this tender. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the manufacturing and supply of luggage and bags. Those specialised in producing military or operational equipment would be particularly well-suited to participate. The requirement for an estimated 41,000 operational travel bags, along with additional daysacks, indicates a robust demand that could facilitate substantial growth for winning suppliers. Consequently, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as they may be able to gain a foothold within this framework through mini-competitions or direct awards as outlined in the tender documentation. ## Notice The Authority intends to award a multi-supplier 4-year framework agreement for the manufacturing and supply of Operational Travel Bags, 30L Black Army Daysacks and 30L RAF Daysacks. An estimated annual quantity of 41,000 Operational Travel Bags will be required along with 20,000 30L Black Army Daysacks and 30,000 30L RAF Daysacks These quantities are estimates only and the Authority holds the right to lessen and/or exceed based on actual requirement. The Authority has recently undertaken a DPQQ (Dynamic Pre-qualification Questionnaire) exercise to downselect to between two and six suppliers and has now issued the attached ITT (Invitation to Tender) to the six suppliers that passed this stage, as detailed in the OJEU/DCO notice dated 06/02/2018. The ITT will be evaluated through a Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) calculation to determine the successful Tenderers. Full details of the ITT evaluation are provided in this notice. It is the intention that orders on the Framework shall be awarded either through mini-competition or direct award. The performance of suppliers on this Framework will be subject to monitoring and management through key performance indicators. No business whatsoever is guaranteed under any resulting Framework Agreement or Contract, indeed there is no guarantee that any Framework Agreement of Contract will be put in place in relation to this notice. No compensation etc will be paid if a tender or resulting Framework Agreement is withdrawn for any reason. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a9613a96-0759-4e3c-b95b-be558e3ec4cf | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Sep 2018 | | Submission deadline | 9 Oct 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 14 Dec 2018 - 14 Dec 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £10,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF DEFENCE | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS34 8JH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK5 West of England | | ITL 3 | TLK52 Bath & North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire | | Local authority | South Gloucestershire | | Electoral ward | Stoke Park & Cheswick | | Westminster constituency | Filton and Bradley Stoke | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 18 - Clothing, footwear, luggage articles and accessories ### Codes - 18900000 - Luggage, saddlery, sacks and bags ## Release History - 10 Sep 2018 at 10:17 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a9613a96-0759-4e3c-b95b-be558e3ec4cf ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a9613a96-0759-4e3c-b95b-be558e3ec4cf 10th September 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c05faf8a-0dcd-4d72-b845-bb189f47eb3d - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ad3377c5-39e7-4f3c-bc21-ff969d04ac50 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/de8d48e5-c8c9-443f-b8f0-b0686fe2f137 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f796c820-a577-486d-a75f-198cffb450b5 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c3f855c1-a2b0-4cbd-8f01-67375cd2ef4f - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e0eb63df-5e35-428d-8122-ba01c0c36a34 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/87e74bf1-22e5-45ff-a297-8ba7b30ade1b - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/105d6b00-e6e2-48f4-93f5-007976a454a3 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/fc961e85-8987-4603-96b9-67608a70dfd6 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3faff08c-652a-4c64-93e7-ca2ce5ab8aba - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5086f804-2c42-47bc-82be-b87914347455 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4644e97e-71d6-4db4-826f-e6adad00d5fc - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f405097c-3da0-4d00-a7ef-073bbadb2c0d - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d7b9e35a-b8c8-4c00-9420-bc48237d39eb ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
