## Summary

Leidos Supply Limited, along with its partner TVS Supply Chain Solutions Limited, is currently in the planning stage to conduct a procurement process for the supply of Thermal Jackets and Trousers with a Multi Terrain Pattern. This procurement is under the broad initiative launched by Team Leidos in collaboration with the Ministry of Defence for transforming defence supply chain capabilities. The focus of this tender is on transforming the procurement and inventory management of various commodity items, including military apparel. The preliminary market engagement notice (PMEN) is open until 26th January 2026, and interested parties can participate by contacting Charlotte Beavan to request necessary documents. This procurement pilot falls under the goods category, specifically targeting combat uniforms, and will be conducted in the United Kingdom.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in the manufacturing, supplying, or distributing of military clothing to expand their operations and secure a significant contract within the UK defence sector. With a gross contract value estimated at £10.2 million and a net value of £8.5 million, this procurement process is well-suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that aim to establish a foothold in the defence industry. Additionally, as this tender involves a framework agreement, it could ensure long-term engagement for successful bidders, extending from March 2027 to March 2031, with possible renewal options. Interested companies are encouraged to engage early to shape future requirements and innovation strategies, thereby enhancing their growth in the public sector market.

## Notice

In April 2015, Team Leidos secured a thirteen-year PS6.7Bn contract with the Ministry of Defence (MOD) to provide procurement and inventory management services in relation to a wide range of commodity items (as well as related storage and distribution services) historically provided in-house by the Logistic Commodities and Services Operating Centre. Team Leidos (comprising Leidos Europe Limited, Leidos Supply Limited and several partners- including TVS Supply Chain Solutions) is working with the MOD to transform the way in which these services are delivered, ensuring that ongoing requirements continue to be met whilst seeking to enhance and improve the UK's defence supply chain capability whilst providing best value for money for the Department. A key part of this Logistics, Commodities and Services Transformation ("LCST") contract is the procurement and inventory management of c70,000 commodity NATO Stock Number (NSNs). which are acquired through the regular conduct of public, advertised tenders overseen by Leidos Supply Limited ("LSL"). LSL now wants to draw to the attention of the market its intention to conduct a pilot procurement ("the Pilot") for several lines of military clothing with the intention of establishing whether it is feasible to procure such items on a more "resilient" basis without compromising quality, price and delivery. The specific lines which we intend to procure through the Pilot are of Thermal Jackets & Trousers Multi Terrain Pattern. It is the aim of this Preliminary Market Engagement Notice (PMEN) to encourage companies, suppliers, manufacturers or distributors to make us aware of their interest in this opportunity and provide as much information as they are comfortable with, in order to assist us in determining the strategy for and approach to the Pilot. LSL wishes to generate interest, information and views from organisations to understand the current market innovation and gain useful market intelligence to shape the requirement.
