## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has concluded a procurement process for the supply and delivery of F-35 high-grade sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to RAF Northolt, under the framework agreement GBFS(2). The filling medal involved is selective, specifically through a call-off contract, which has been awarded as of 9th July 2025. This procurement falls under the industry category of 'fuels' and is centred in Bristol, as indicated by the buyer's address at MOD Abbey Wood. The awarded contract will commence on 10th July 2025 and is expected to culminate on 31st August 2025, with the contract valued at £126,925.73.

This tender presents an opportunity for established businesses in the fuels industry, particularly those engaged with aviation fuels, to expand their portfolio by specialising in the delivery of sustainable fuel solutions to military sectors. Companies like World Fuel Service Europe Limited, which was awarded this contract, exemplify the type of large-scale, well-resourced enterprise capable of meeting the rigorous demands of such partnerships. The opportunity is less suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, reflecting the need for significant capacity and expertise in supplying high-grade SAF efficiently. Businesses with similar capabilities and a focus on sustainability could benefit from such niche market engagements to foster growth and diversification.
