## Summary

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence seeking to establish a contract under the Management Consultancy Framework Three for the LOT 3 Complex and Transformation project, known as Project Stonefish. The procurement method used is selective, with a contract value of £346,395. Although the tender period ended on 1st November 2021, the contract was awarded to PA Consulting Services Limited on 2nd November 2021, with the contract duration extending until 2nd May 2022. The services involved fall under the research and development consultancy category, and the project encompasses delivery addresses that include not only the United Kingdom but also various international territories.

This opportunity represents significant potential for consultancy firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage in public sector work, especially in complex transformations. Businesses with expertise in research, development, and consultancy services would find themselves well-placed to contribute to similar future projects, thereby facilitating growth and expanding their portfolios in the government contracting space.
