## Summary

The Ministry of Defence is initiating the procurement process for the disposal of MK217 Mod 0 Payloads, classified under the category of weapons, ammunition and associated parts. This limited tender is currently in the Award stage, with an active contract awarded to Irvin GQ Ltd, valued at £94,834. The contract was signed on 14 December 2021, and delivery is set to occur in the UK, specifically in the region of Bristol (UKL17). This procurement follows regulations that allow negotiated contracts without prior publication due to the technological exclusivity of the supplier.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in munitions decommissioning and related services, particularly those with unique technical capabilities or proprietary knowledge. As the supplier chosen for this contract has exclusive access to the required designs and components, companies in the defence sector that can demonstrate similar expertise and experience in handling complex disposal operations are well-suited to compete in such future tenders. Engaging in this area could foster business growth and establish a foothold in defence contracting opportunities.
