This contract falls under the industry category of goods, specifically focusing on all-terrain vehicles. The procurement is in the award stage, with the contract value set at £3,472,000 and a date signed on 20th April 2022. The procurement method utilised is limited, employing a negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice, primarily due to technical requirements associated with the existing contract. This extension will ensure continuity of support for the fleet of Finning Dan Forklift vehicles located in the UK, avoiding disruption and maintaining operational capabilities. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in supply chain management and in-service support for heavy machinery, particularly those experienced in working with government contracts. Companies that are capable of providing similar services, possess relevant technical knowledge, and have an understanding of the Ministry of Defence's operational requirements would be well-suited to compete. With the increasing complexity in supply chains, especially in the current global climate, businesses that can demonstrate a seamless provision of technical support and reliability could benefit from participating in future tenders related to this contract. ## Notice Supply and In Service Support of Finning Dan Fork Lift Trucks ### Lot Information Lot 1 12 Month Extension + 6 Month option period for the Supply and In Service Support of Finning Dan Fork Lift Trucks. ### Procurement Information The Air Commodities Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence ("the Authority") intends to extend the existing Contract ACCOMM/00047 with Briggs Equipment Ltd for a period of 12 months, with further option period of 6 months requiring no uplift to the current Contract sanction of PS3.472M. The current Contract runs to 5th May 2022 and sustains the in-service support for a fleet of Finning Dan Forklifts Vehicles. It is considered that the contract can be extended using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice pursuant to Regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015: It has been deemed necessary to extend the existing service for technical reasons in addition to the fact to compete the requirement at this time would cause significant disruption to the Finning Dan Forklift capability. The extension to Contract ACCOMM/00047 ensures a level of SQEP is maintained whilst requirements relating to a complex amalgamation of Contracts for a future competition are obtained. Considering timescales and the complexity, if the Contract were not be extended in this instance, it is likely a gap in technical knowledge and capability would jeopardise the safe operation of the fleet of vehicles and would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting Authority. Furthermore, Briggs Equipment Ltd possess the knowledge of MOD supply chain processes specific to this requirement, which are vital in satisfying routine and mission critical spares demands in a timely manner, maintaining operational output during a time of global supply chain instability. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/010324-2022 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Negotiated without publication of a contract notice | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Apr 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 19 Apr 2022 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £3,472,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF DEFENCE | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Not specified | | Postcode | N/A | | Country | Not specified | | ITL 1 | Not specified | | ITL 2 | Not specified | | ITL 3 | Not specified | | Local authority | Not specified | | Electoral ward | Not specified | | Westminster constituency | Not specified | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | BRIGGS EQUIPMENT | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation ### Codes - 34113200 - All-terrain vehicles ## Release History - 20 Apr 2022 at 16:06 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/010324-2022 ## Notice URLs - https://des.mod.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
