MOD offers managed service provider contracts

The MOD has offered a set of managed service provider contracts to provide private-sector expertise to support the transformation of DE&S.

Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S) buys and supports all the equipment used by the armed forces.

Contractors will work alongside existing DE&S staff to help change they way DE&S manages the buying and support of defence equipment, and helps deliver the MOD’s 10-year £164 billion equipment plan.

The procurement of these tailored private sector skills will complement existing in-house expertise, and provide the external support required to ensure that DE&S can reach its goal of becoming a ‘best in class’ acquisition organisation.

DE&S matches the 4 ‘domain’ areas of activity within the armed forces, which oversee the majority of its project and programme procurement.

CH2M Hill has been offered the contract for project delivery in the Land and Joint Enabler areas, with Bechtel offered the contract for the Air and Fleet areas. The human resources contract has been offered to PwC.
