## Summary

The contract titled "Procurement of 2XN Oil to Support BBMF Aircraft" has been awarded by the Ministry of Defence, a key buyer in England. This procurement process falls under the goods category, specifically classified as lubricants (CPV code 24951100). The contract was awarded on 30th September 2020, and although it is in the Award stage, the procurement method utilised was selective, through a call-off from the Crown Commercial Services Contract RM3801 (National Fuels - 2). The contract is valued at £205,000 and runs from 1st October 2020 to 31st March 2025, with the delivery address located in Lincoln, England. There were no specific deadlines for the tender submission, as this notice is for transparency purposes only following the completion of the process.

This contract represents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the fuel and lubricant supply sector, particularly those with capacity to supply specialised oils for aircraft maintenance and storage. Companies equipped to participate in future tenders under similar frameworks or those that meet the quality and delivery requirements for defence contracts will find significant prospects for growth. The contract could benefit larger businesses that are established suppliers, as indicated by the awarded supplier, Certas Energy UK Limited. Businesses capable of demonstrating compliance with the stringent specifications often required for military contracts will be well-positioned to engage in similar procurement processes going forward.
