## Summary

The procurement process for the "Break Fix Support 3" contract was conducted by the UK Ministry of Defence's Defence Equipment & Support as the buying organisation. This project falls under the industry category of IT services, specifically encompassing consulting, software development, internet, and support. The contract, valued at £1,481,652 GBP, was signed on 23rd July 2025, and it involves services delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was limited, without prior publication of a competitive call, due to technical reasons and lack of competition. The contract, awarded to Fujitsu Services Limited, spans from 1st January 2025 to 30th April 2028, with Fujitsu being the sole provider authorised to fulfil these specifications. The procurement stage has reached completion with the award contract status marked as active.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses operating in the IT services sector, particularly those capable of providing high-standard software, hardware, and warranty support solutions. Companies with expertise in defence-related IT support and those capable of technical innovation would find opportunities for growth through involvement in similar projects. Businesses interested in competing for contracts with the Ministry of Defence or those aiming to supply specialised IT solutions in regulated environments would benefit from leveraging the information and standards set by successful tenders like this one. Being aware of procurement processes without prior publication can better position businesses to partner with organisations like BAE Systems, especially when authorised suppliers are limited.
