## Summary

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) awarded a contract to Leonardo UK Ltd on 22nd December 2025 for the provision of preventative and corrective maintenance for approximately seventy-seven synthetic ground training aids across mainland UK. The contracting process, initiated through a limited procurement method, followed a negotiated procedure without prior publication due to its above-threshold status. This award, valued at £5,367,231.10, was published on 22nd January 2026, with the contract scheduled to run from 1st January 2026 to 31st March 2031. The procurement process pertains to services in the industry category of Training and Simulation in Military Electronic Systems, with significant operations located in the South East of the United Kingdom, focusing on Defence infrastructure. The initial tender stage of this process was active as of 29th July 2024 and was open for submissions until 28th August 2024.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies involved in the defence, aerospace, and training simulation sectors. It highlights the potential for organisations skilled in maintenance, engineering support, and systems integration to engage with ongoing and future Defence contracts. Although this particular procurement was not open to SMEs, businesses with similar capabilities and scale, particularly those able to offer competitive, high-grade electronic training systems, would find the Defence sector a promising avenue for collaboration and contract acquisition. The contract's requirement for extensive geographical coverage within the UK, alongside the necessity for specific technical expertise, underscores the potential for businesses that can offer comprehensive and distributed service delivery to thrive in this domain.
