This initiative centres on the integration and management of Defence Support’s Information Services, aiming to ensure seamless delivery among various service providers. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically related to information technology requirements and consultancy. The estimated contract value is £30 million with a gross amount of £36 million, and it will proceed through a selective procurement method as an award under a framework. This procurement applies to the defence and security regime, and the contract period is scheduled from 1st July 2027 to 30th June 2032, with a possible extension to 30th June 2033. The main procurement category is services, and it is primarily located in Bristol, United Kingdom. Relevant documentation was published on 13th May 2026 as a pipeline notice. Businesses specialising in IT service integration, consultancy, and audit services are particularly well-suited to engage in this tender. Opportunities exist for companies capable of managing a diverse set of service providers and aligning roles and governance to ensure optimal performance. Firms at the forefront of Artificial Intelligence and data security innovations may find competitive advantage, as the Ministry of Defence is also gathering insights through a Request for Information (RFI) to refine its procurement strategy. This presents an excellent opportunity for businesses geared towards modern IT solutions to secure a strategic partner role in supporting national defence objectives. ## Notice The Defence Support Service Integrator will be responsible for the Service Integration and Management (SIAM) of multiple internal and external service providers to ensure the seamless delivery and performance of Defence Support's Information Services. It will coordinate the management of services, processes, and providers to ensure they work together seamlessly and maximise value delivery. It includes the alignment of roles, responsibilities, data, workflows, and governance across all service providers to promote consistency in performance, accountability and service experience. In addition to integrating operational services, the provider will be required to manage several service providers during the delivery of a complex transformation programme and interoperate with MOD's enterprise Operational Service Management (OSM) capability. All contract values are indicative estimates based on current assumptions. Any extension periods will be subject to budgetary review and internal approvals at the relevant time. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043832-2026 | | Notice type | UK1 - Pipeline Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Award under framework | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 May 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Jun 2027 - 30 Jun 2032 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £30,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF DEFENCE | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS34 8JH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK5 West of England | | ITL 3 | TLK52 Bath & North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire | | Local authority | South Gloucestershire | | Electoral ward | Stoke Park & Cheswick | | Westminster constituency | Filton and Bradley Stoke | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72150000 - Computer audit consultancy and hardware consultancy services - 72223000 - Information technology requirements review services ## Release History - 13 May 2026 at 11:32 - PlanningUpdate - UK1 - Pipeline Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043832-2026 - 13 May 2026 at 11:23 - Planning - UK1 - Pipeline Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043825-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043832-2026 13th May 2026 - Pipeline notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043825-2026 13th May 2026 - Pipeline notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ministry-of-defence - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
