In plain English

The UK Ministry of Defence is buying Combat Application Tourniquets (C.A.T Gen 7) medical devices through Leidos Supply Ltd. This is a 4-year framework agreement worth between £9 million and £11 million, but there is no guaranteed volume of orders.

What the buyer wants

• Supply Combat Application Tourniquets (C.A.T Gen 7) to agreed specifications and quality standards • Deliver stock within agreed timescales throughout the 4-year contract period • Register on the Leidos Supply eProcurement system (Jaggaer) and submit bids through that platform

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This contract is nearly impossible for a small business: it requires £9-11 million in capital commitment over 4 years, medical device manufacturing or direct supply capability, Defence-grade compliance, and there is zero guarantee of any orders despite the massive financial commitment. Only established medical device manufacturers or large distributors should bid.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
