What are Defence Tenders?

When goods, services, or works for military and defence purposes are required by the government, a tender notice will be published that invites relevant suppliers within the defence industry to bid for the contract. As they are responsible for the country’s defence and security, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) is the main government organisation that publishes defence tenders in the United Kingdom.

Due to the size of the industry, defence contracts cover a wide range of areas. Defence procurement can include naval, land & aerospace systems, cyber security, research & development, training, logistics, and intelligence. These tender opportunities may also include construction projects, professional services, maintenance & support, or any other goods & services needed to meet the country’s defence needs.

Why Bid for Defence Tenders?

Bidding on defence contracts within the public sector can be extremely lucrative for your business.

With the introduction of the Acquisition Pipeline by the MoD in 2022, suppliers are now given a forward look at potential defence procurement opportunities across the sector, which offers many benefits to businesses that are wanting to bid on these valuable defence contracts.

This early awareness enables bidders to align their business plans with the procurement priorities of the MoD and helps suppliers build relationships with key stakeholders, which can give them significant competitive advantage over the competition and open the door to future tender opportunities. This forward look also helps newer market entrants to participate, especially Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). With this drive to improve engagement with SMEs, the Ministry of Defence aims to make procurement models easier to navigate so more businesses can grow through these defence opportunities.

Whether you are a land equipment supplier or offer support & maintenance services, Tracker is the business intelligence tool you need to access MoD tender opportunities. Request a free personalised demo today to see how our procurement tools can help you win more business.

Finding UK Defence Contracts in the Public Sector

As one of Europe’s biggest public procurement organisations, the Ministry of Defence is continuously publishing new tender notices in order to procure goods, works and services, which creates more opportunities for defence industry suppliers to win work in the public sector.

Defence Procurement Opportunities in the UK

Due to the extensive size of the defence industry in the UK, the defence procurement opportunities with the Ministry of Defence are diverse and plentiful.

The MoD will publish military equipment tenders in an effort to procure technology such as aircraft, naval vessels, land equipment, weapons, and guidance systems. Cyber security tenders are also becoming more prevalent as the reliance on technology grows, which means more contract opportunities in the form of information assurance services and secure communication systems.

The Ministry of Defence may also publish contracts to assist with military and defence training. These tenders can include the procurement of training facilities and equipment as well as scenario simulation development. The MoD may also release contracts in an effort to find organisations that can assist with the maintenance and repair of military equipment such as vehicles, ships, and aircraft.
