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. The Requirement is to procure DEXIS IXS sensors which have already been ‘whitelisted’ for use within existing MOD IT infrastructure. Estimated quantities: 687 units The DEXIS IXS sensor has been MOD directed due to compatibility with existing MOD IT systems. Introducing alternatives would require extensive IT re integration resulting in significant additional cost, delay, and delivery risk. LSL is therefore proceeding via a Direct Award in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. Under Condition 41, Schedule 5 (Direct Award Justifications), “Changing supplier would create disproportionate technical difficulties, incompatibility risks and Significant delay. “These conditions would apply if an alternative to the DEXIS sensor were introduced. For clarity, the reference to “changing supplier” within the Procurement Act 2023 relates to a change in the OEM, in line with the requirement. Competition will continue to be maintained at the distributor level, with procurement conducted among approved distributors in the market. The purpose of this tender notice is to ensure all interested companies, suppliers, and manufacturers are aware of this opportunity. Suppliers are invited to submit all responses for the proposed tender via the Jaggaer platform.
