## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has completed the procurement process for the delivery of Strategic Additive Manufacturing (AdM) part certification guidance, emphasising its significance within the defence security regime. This project, titled "ADM Part Certification Guidance (Tampa)", aimed to advance an existing joint Defence and industry guide, ensuring ongoing accessibility for industry stakeholders in AdM. ASTM International UK has been awarded the contract for this initiative, valued at £24,000 gross, commencing on 12th November 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2026. The procurement method employed was direct, below the threshold without competition, as indicated by its status on the award stage as of 25th March 2026. The Ministry of Defence, located in London, serves as the central government public authority overseeing this acquisition.

This procurement provides an opportunity for businesses involved in research and development consultancy services within the additive manufacturing sector to access advanced certification guidance, enhancing their operational standards and market competitiveness. Companies with similar specialisations may find opportunities to collaborate or compete in related future tenders, particularly those with expertise in defence and security. This initiative is particularly beneficial for large-scale businesses focused on technological innovation and strategic development in the manufacturing domain, offering them a chance to influence industry standards and gain recognition within governmental frameworks.
