## Summary

The Supplier Development Programme is facilitating a planned procurement process titled "Tendering with the UK Ministry of Defence," aimed at understanding MOD contracting opportunities. This initiative focuses on the defence industry and is taking place in Hamilton, UK. The procurement stage is currently in the Planning phase, with a future notice expected on 3 March 2021. The procurement method used is a tender process, and interested businesses can participate by registering for a free webinar that will provide vital insights into MOD contracts accessible through the new Defence Sourcing Portal.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for business growth, particularly for Scottish micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises, as well as third-sector organisations.
