## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has completed the procurement process for the supply and delivery of F-35 fuel to Inverness, scheduled from July 2026 to June 2027. This process was conducted through a selective procurement method via a call-off from the Global Bulk Fuels Service 2 framework. The awarded contract, valued at £26,545,104.30, falls under the "Fossil fuels" industry category and will see deliveries made to Scotland, United Kingdom. The procurement phase reached the award stage, with the contract having been published on 19 May 2026.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of fossil fuels and related petroleum products. Although the process selected BP Oil International Limited, larger-scale enterprises with the capability to handle substantial orders may find similar projects beneficial for expansion and strengthening market presence. The framework approach suggests opportunities for pre-qualified suppliers to engage in future tenders, providing an avenue for business growth within the defence sector and energy supply logistics.
