## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has completed a procurement process for sourcing GPS spare parts, focusing on electronic and electrical spare parts for military aerospace equipment. The procurement falls under the goods category and was conducted using a limited procurement method without prior publication, justified due to the technical exclusivity of the supplier. The awarded supplier is Chronos Technology Ltd, the sole distributor in the UK, as declared by the OEM based in the USA, General Dynamics Mission Systems. The contract for the procurement was signed on 13th May 2025 and carries a value of £104,171 GBP. This process specifically caters to the UK location, with the Ministry of Defence acting as the buying entity.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for companies in the defence and aerospace supply chain sectors with a focus on electronic components. Despite the fact that the tender has concluded, businesses which can leverage technical specialisation and exclusivity agreements similar to Chronos Technology Ltd are well-suited to compete in future procurements of this nature. Establishing ties with key OEMs and being recognised as exclusive distributors for particular products could provide advantageous positions in winning government contracts, particularly those demanding technical specificity.
