## Summary

The procurement process titled "Supply of Tools and Power Tools" is initiated by Leidos Supply Limited, based in Bristol, England. This tender falls under the industry category of tools and machine tools, with a specific focus on supplying a range of approximately 6,500 to 9,500 tools and around 500 powered tools for the Ministry of Defence, anticipated to commence in the first half of 2018. The procurement is currently at the planning stage, with an engagement end date set for 23rd February 2018. The tender process will follow the EU Public Procurement Regulations, and Leidos intends to hold an Industry Day for potential suppliers to discuss requirements further.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in tools and power tools, particularly those able to offer both premium and economy options. Companies with experience in supplying to governmental or defence sectors will find this a suitable opportunity, as the successful bidder will need to provide an e-catalogue solution for order management. Suppliers of pneumatic, electric, and petrol-powered tools as well as machine tools for drilling and milling metal will be well-suited to compete effectively in this procurement process.

## Notice

Leidos has an enduring requirement for the supply of a range of tools and power tools for the MoD and intends to invite tenders with a view to awarding Contracts that are targeted to commence in the first half of 2018. Team Leidos will invite tenders, to cover all or part of, a range of approximately 6500 to 9500 tools and around 500 powered tools. Please note that this number could be subject to change, and is purely for indicative purposes at this time. These products will cover land, aviation & marine products including, but not limited to the following: * Power tools - Electric, Petrol & Pneumatic * Taps & Dies * Spanners & Spanner Sets * Screwdrivers * Hammers * Chisels * Wrenches * Workshop Tools Leidos may give the end-user the choice, via e-catalogue, of both premium and economy tools from which to choose, dependent on the specific nature of the application. As part of the planned procurement, Leidos will also require an e-catalogue solution to enable the end users to place orders directly with the successful supplier(s). This would either be operated using a Leidos e-catalogue, or through Leidos' use of supplier(s) existing e-catalogue solutions probably via an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). In order to test the ability of Industry to be able to deliver this requirement Team Leidos may hold an Industry Day, Without Commitment, prior to the issue of any future tender. Any organisation requiring additional information or wishing to participate in the Industry Day should contact Leidos by e-mail using the point(s) of contact within this bulletin.
