## Summary

The Ministry of Defence procured construction works for a petroleum storage depot at RAF Akrotiri. The scope is categorised as construction work, including complete or partial building and civil engineering works and building construction. Delivery is associated with RAF Akrotiri and the wider locations stated for the requirement, including the United Kingdom, Europe and Cyprus’s British Overseas Territory. The requirement is for a substantial infrastructure project rather than routine maintenance or a supply-only contract. It is suited to businesses involved in major construction, civil engineering, building works and specialist infrastructure for petroleum storage facilities. The selected delivery team was a joint venture between Lagan Aviation & Infrastructure Limited and Iacovou Brothers (Constructions) Ltd, both recorded as large organisations.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 30 March 2026 at 10:00. The contract was awarded on 4 August 2026 to Lagan Aviation & Infrastructure Limited and Iacovou Brothers (Constructions) Ltd. The awarded value is £16,659,313.50, while the procurement’s stated value was £14,000,000. The contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 8 May 2029. The requirement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Evaluation was conducted through the framework call-off route; the available procurement details do not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award indicates demand from the Ministry of Defence for large, complex construction and civil engineering projects supporting petroleum storage infrastructure at a military aviation site. A credible competitor for comparable work would need the financial capacity, workforce and project controls to deliver a major construction contract, together with experience of coordinating a joint venture or similarly substantial delivery team. Relevant capability includes building and civil engineering works, petroleum storage depot construction, infrastructure integration and delivery in a controlled defence or aviation environment. The procurement also shows that this buyer accesses such requirements through framework call-offs and that major suppliers, rather than SMEs or VCSEs, are positioned for this scale of work. Businesses developing a future proposition should therefore demonstrate comparable infrastructure delivery and framework participation.
