## Summary

The procurement process was conducted by the Ministry of Defence for the provision of worldwide Aeronautical Information (AI) services, amounting to a contract value of £773,296. This contract, which has been awarded to NAVBLUE Limited, falls under the navigation services category and was initiated as a selective procurement using a restricted procedure. The contract period spans from 1st June 2017 to 31st May 2019, following the closure of the tender period on 31st May 2017. The delivery of services will be expected in London, United Kingdom.

This opportunity presents substantial growth potential for companies specialising in aeronautical information services, particularly those capable of providing terminal charts and related textual information in electronic formats.
