## Summary

The Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO), part of the UK Ministry of Defence, is planning a tender process under the title "UK2 Notice - South Atlantic Islands FM". The procurement seeks to appoint a supplier for the provision of Facilities Management services at Ministry of Defence sites in the South Atlantic Islands, including the Falkland Islands and Ascension Island. This project falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on both hard and soft facilities management. The procurement is currently at the planning stage with early market engagement activities underway, and suppliers are invited to provide their feedback by the end of December 2026. The main procurement process is anticipated to start in 2030, with the contract period running from April 2030 through to March 2037, with possibilities of extension until 2040.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies skilled in delivering complex and remote facilities management services. Given the Defence Infrastructure Organisation's £500 million budget for this procurement, businesses specialising in facilities management, repair, maintenance services, and capable of operating within the defence and security sector are well-suited to compete. The procurement process allows for supplier feedback to shape its future strategy, ensuring opportunities are not only limited to large organisations but also open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering the required services. Businesses looking to expand their reach into government contracts, particularly within international locations, will find this an advantageous opportunity.

## Notice
