The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with key dates including a tender period ending on 23rd January 2025 and a contract period from 28th May 2025 to 27th May 2029. The primary requirement is the supply and delivery of diesel fuel to British Forces in Germany, with refuelling needed at Mechanical Transport Fuel Installations, exercise areas, and supplier depots. This open procedure, valued at GBP 5,139,000, falls under the goods category and is classified under industries related to diesel fuel and vehicle refuelling services. Eligible businesses include those based in the United Kingdom, Europe, and various other regions as listed in the documentation. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for suppliers specialising in fuel distribution and logistical support. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, while voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are not being targeted. Firms with capabilities in managing large-scale fuel supply chains and providing comprehensive delivery services would find this tender particularly fitting. Participation in this contract can establish or expand the successful bidder's presence in defence sector logistics and fuel supply, paving the way for future contracts and partnerships with the Ministry of Defence. ## Notice British Forces in Germany need the capability to refuel their vehicles from Mechanical Transport Fuel Installations (MTFIs) in a limited number of locations. There is therefore a requirement for the supply of diesel to the fuel storage tanks at these MTFIs. There is also a requirement for the delivery of fuel to exercise areas and for the Authority's Bulk Fuel Carrying Vehicles (BFCVs) to be filled at the Supplier's depots. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9ca16c7d-14b1-4512-9ccd-5d2b684b4a81 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Dec 2024 | | Submission deadline | 23 Jan 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 27 May 2025 - 27 May 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £5,139,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF DEFENCE | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS34 8JH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK5 West of England | | ITL 3 | TLK52 Bath & North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire | | Local authority | South Gloucestershire | | Electoral ward | Stoke Park & Cheswick | | Westminster constituency | Filton and Bradley Stoke | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 63 - Supporting and auxiliary transport services; travel agencies services ### Codes - 09134200 - Diesel fuel - 09134220 - Diesel fuel (EN 590) - 09211800 - Petroleum oils and preparations - 63712600 - Vehicle refuelling services ## Release History - 5 Dec 2024 at 15:28 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9ca16c7d-14b1-4512-9ccd-5d2b684b4a81 - 5 Dec 2024 at 14:38 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9ca16c7d-14b1-4512-9ccd-5d2b684b4a81 - 5 Dec 2024 at 14:29 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9ca16c7d-14b1-4512-9ccd-5d2b684b4a81 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9ca16c7d-14b1-4512-9ccd-5d2b684b4a81 5th December 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://contracts.mod.uk Defence Sourcing Portal - https://contracts.mod.uk/go/148007950193970CFD79 The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at - http://www.contracts.mod.uk Defence Sourcing Portal - Suppliers must register in order to view the procurement documents - http://www.contracts.mod.uk/go/148007950193970CFD79 The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
