Description

The Vehicle Support Team (VST), herein referred to as the Authority, has a requirement to enable procurement of a range of Capital Spares for the majority of the Vehicle Support (VS) Fleet through a framework contract with multiple suppliers.

There are approximately 8000 individual items included within scope of the contract, defined by Nato Stock Numbers (NSN) and Manufacturer's Part Numbers (MPN) and supplemented with packaging codes. The Authority reserves the right to amend the list as a result of obsolescence and Post Design Services (PDS). The range of capital spares covers the majority of the VS Fleet, including wheeled and tracked platforms.

Successful tenderers will be responsible for responding to Request for Quotes (RFQ) raised by the Authority for items from this list, depending on operational demand. If successful in their bid, successful tenderers will be responsible for sourcing and delivering items, conforming to their NATO specifications, to the Authority.

The contract is intended to be from 1 May 2020 until 31 March 2027. The estimated value of the contract is between £20,000,000 and £40,000,000 GBP. However, due to the framework nature of the contract there is no guaranteed order amount or quantity of work.

Successful Tenderers will be required to:

• Submit bids against RFQs raised by the Authority;
• Ensure compliance with safety and quality standards;
• Manage traceability back to source at a unit level;
• Report on obsolescence to the Authority if encountered during the procurement process;
• Transport items safely and securely following HAZMAT and COSHH and other relevant guidelines;
• Deliver to UK MOD secure facilities.

Expressions of Interest to participate in this requirement are to be submitted on the DCO by completing the DPQQ, reference 448S259D6A.
