## Summary

The procurement process titled "GPS Spare Parts" was conducted by the Ministry of Defence, based in Bristol, UK, and focuses on the electronic and electrical spare parts for military aerospace equipment. This contract falls under the industry category of goods, specifically targeting the defence sector. The procurement utilised a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to technical reasons, and it identified Chronos Technology Ltd as the sole supplier for these goods. The contract, valued at £125,005.20, was signed on 13th May 2025, marking the completion of this procurement stage.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity for Chronos Technology Ltd, an SME located in Lydbrook, UK, appointed as the exclusive distributor for the GPS spare parts supplied by General Dynamics Mission Systems based in the USA. Businesses involved in the production or distribution of military-grade electronic and electrical components might find similar future procurements appealing, particularly those with niche capabilities or specialisations that align with technically demanding contracts. As such processes often necessitate specialised skills or direct partnerships with OEMs, companies that can cultivate exclusive agreements may gain a competitive edge in the defence sector supply chain.
