## Summary

The buying organisation, BlueLight Commercial, is seeking tenders for the provision of Jet Fuel to National Police Air Service Bases.

The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender being currently in the active stage.

This tender offers a business opportunity for suppliers in the fuel industry to provide Jet Fuel to the National Police Air Service Bases. Companies experienced in supplying aviation fuel and meeting DEFSTAN 91-091 standards would be well-suited to compete. The tender process is conducted by BlueLight Commercial in the UK, providing a chance for businesses to secure a contract with the National Police Air Service.

## Notice

NPAS needs to have Jet Fuel (to the DEFSTAN 91-091 standards/specification for Jet Fuel) delivered to seven bases/locations. Demand is driven by operational need, as NPAS do not operate flights on a purely scheduled basis. Therefore any contract awarded under this tender process will carry no minimum volume guarantee or assurance. The technical questionnaire references SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) and AvGas. The existing NPAS fleet cannot accommodate SAF. NPAS is currently tendering for new rotary aircraft, but any changes to the fleet is unlikely to take place within the next two years. There is a slight possibility that AvGas may be required for it's fixed wing fleet. However, this is not definite at the point of launching this tender.
