LSL/MED/0223 - The Supply and support of portable pharmaceutical refrigerators for land operations - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - (New RFI) - PA23

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), that were 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 intending to consider approaches that could fulfill our requirement for the supply and support of portable pharmaceutical refrigerators for land operations.

The requirement is for a powered, portable capability with a minimum capacity of 45L. Solutions must be suitable for the safe cold-storage of pharmaceutical goods at +2°C to +8°C in extreme ambient temperature conditions. Solutions should be compatible with UK and overseas mains power supplies as well as 24V vehicle power. Solutions should be able to maintain stable cold-storage temperatures when disconnected from mains/vehicle power for several hours.

It is the aim of this Preliminary Market Engagement Notice (PMEN) to encourage companies, suppliers, or manufacturers to make us aware of the market 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.

To register your interest in this requirement, please contact:

Please reference LSL/MED/0223 in your email. Responses are required as soon as possible to inform next steps, but the PMEN will remain open until 14/05/2026.
