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) 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 continuing to investigate innovative approaches to fill our requirement for the supply of operating tables for use in the maritime environment.

Solutions must be suitable for conducting damage control surgery within a maritime environment, capable of achieving standard operating positions and suitable for use with imaging equipment.
Both manual and electric solutions will be considered.
The aim of this Preliminary Market Engagement Notice (PMEN) is 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.
