Details

In April 2015, the MOD signed a thirteen year contract with Leidos Europe Ltd to provide the procurement and inventory management of commodity items (as well as the storage and distribution services), that were historically provided in-house by the Logistic Commodities and Services Operating Centre. Leidos, working with the MOD, will transform the way these services are delivered to ensure requirements continue to be met whilst providing best value for money for the department. The organisation delivering these services is known as Team Leidos. Team Leidos would like to make markets aware that we are intending to consider approaches that could fulfill our requirement to develop and supply Extreme Cold Weather (ECW) Gloves for the MOD. The intention is to find a suitable development partner to enter into an agreement covering the full development process and a susbsequent period of supply. Team Leidos would be particulalry interested in hearing from manufacturers with previous experience of similar development projects. The value of this framework is estimated to be between £8,400,000 - £21,000,000 It is the aim of this Preliminary Market Engagement Notice (PMEN) to encourage companies, suppliers, or manufacturers to make us aware and provide as much information as they are comfortable with, to help decide the future strategy for the range. Team Leidos wishes to generate interest, information and views with other companies to understand the current market innovation and gain useful intelligence that can help our requirement. To request the PMEN documents please contact: Emmanuel Paul [contact details removed] In the email request the documents related the Development and Supply of ECW Gloves. The documents will then be sent for completion and should be returned to the same email addresses before the deadline.
