Framework
An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
Open for bids / closing date
You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
Clarification questions
A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
Conditions of participation
What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
Bids are scored on
How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
Lots
A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
Area (ITL)
The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
UK4 and other notice codes

Description

Description of Procurement The Ministry of Defence (MOD) (the “Authority”) intends to award a contract to Theon Sensors S.A. for the continued through-life support, maintenance and repair of the Sniper In-Line Low Light System (SILLS) Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) Thermal Sight capability, now referred to as the Designated Marksman Thermal Imager (DMTI), together with the provision of additional equipment and associated ancillaries as required during the contract period. The original contract for this capability was awarded following a competitive procurement conducted under the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations (DSPCR). Theon Sensors S.A. designed and delivered the bespoke solution and is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and Design Authority (DA) for the capability. The proposed direct award is limited to sustaining the existing assured in-service capability, including the procurement of additional units of the same assured capability, until its planned Out of Service Date (OSD). Estimated Contract Value £9,000,000 Ex VAT (estimated) Contract Duration The contract duration aligns with the current planned Out of Service Date (OSD) of the SILLS capability and is limited to sustaining the existing assured in-service capability, including the provision of additional units and associated ancillaries as required, during its remaining service life.
