## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by Defence Equipment and Support, centers around the "Protected and Modified Civilian Profile Vehicles (PaMCPV) Procurement Framework Agreement". This process falls under the 'goods' industry category, specifically focusing on motor vehicles, including passenger cars and 4x4 vehicles. The procurement, which is currently in the planning stage, is set in Bristol, UK, with the contract set to start on 26th September 2025 and potentially extend till 2032. Businesses have until the future notice date of 21st May 2025 to prepare for further tender announcements. This planned procurement is part of a special defence and security regime, highlighting its above-threshold strategic importance for central government procurement.

This framework presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specializing in commercial off-the-shelf vehicle modifications, especially those capable of integrating advanced security and mobility features like blast protection and electronic countermeasures. Companies with expertise in modified vehicles, such as armoured cars and all-terrain vehicles, stand to benefit significantly, with the possibility of significant contract value over multiple call-off contracts. Suppliers should have the flexibility to comply with potential Faculty Security Clearance requirements for certain contracts, and SMEs are particularly encouraged to compete, as the framework is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Given the government's demand for discreet and protected mobility solutions, this tender opens avenues for innovation and collaboration across the automotive and defence industries.

## Notice

The original Contract Notice for Protected and Modified Civilian Profile Vehicles (PaMCPV) Procurement Framework Agreement was issued on 04/02/2025 at the following link https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/003740-2025 The MOD requires protected mobility vehicles for many of its tasks. This requirement is often met by bespoke overt military profile vehicles. However, there are situations where this is unsuitable due to the profile or nature of the task. Therefore, the MOD requires Protected and Modified Civilian Profile Vehicles (PaMCPV) to provide protected and discreet mobility. A Protected and Modified Civilian Profile Vehicle (PaMCPV) at its simplest level is defined as a commercial off the shelf (COTS) vehicle that has been modified to provide a degree of protection and have the potential to integrate mission systems. One of example of this would be a Civilian Armoured Vehicle (CAV). PaMCPV could include cars, 4x4, small vans or minibuses, and would provide discreet protected mobility on operations across the globe and in the UK. The specific requirements will be defined at each call-off stage. Examples of potential modifications include but not limited to: - Integrated blast and ballistic protection. The protection levels and coverage will be defined at each call off stage. - The integration of specified mission systems. This could include Electronic Counter Measures (ECM), communication systems, weapon mounts. - Modifying the base vehicle to meet mobility performance and capacity requirements of individual call-offs. The enduring in-service support for the PaMCPV procurement Framework Agreement will be out of the scope of this contract. Candidates interested in participating in this framework agreement should be aware that some call-off contracts may require Faculty Security Clearance (FSC), depending on classification of the capability being procured. The specific security clearance requirements will be communicated during the call-off process, and suppliers will be required to comply with the necessary security protocols and procedures. a. FSC is not required for a place on the Framework - Candidates can submit bids and be awarded a place on the PaMCPV framework without having FSC at the outset. b. Requirement for Contract Award - Should a call-off contract require FSC, the potential supplier will be required to be granted FSC prior to Contract Award.
