## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by LEIDOS SUPPLY, LIMITED, is currently at the planning stage for a contract titled "The Supply of Jack Boots," catering to the central government category in the UK. This tender focuses on the goods sector, specifically in the area of military uniforms and footwear, and will take place across the United Kingdom. The process is planned to commence with an engagement notice on 14 August 2025, offering a substantial contract period from 6 April 2026 to 6 April 2033, with an estimated value ranging from £2.4 million to £6 million excluding VAT. TVS SUPPLY CHAIN SOLUTIONS LIMITED will be conducting various parts of the evaluation for this procurement process.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in military footwear and ceremonial boots, particularly those that qualify as small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Being part of a long-term supply chain transformation initiative led by Team Leidos to enhance logistics for the Ministry of Defence, businesses can leverage this contract to gain a foothold in the defence logistics market. Suppliers capable of meeting the robust requirements of public authority procurement will find this an advantageous platform for business growth and establishing strong ties with central government logistics operations.
