date. Completion of a
Pre-Qualification Questionnaire will be required for consideration of
selection to tender. Note: Standard company
literature or advertising material should not be submitted with the

tender/contract will subsequently be issued. Announcements are for
information only. Thus the issue of a possible future purchase notice, or the
issue of a pre-qualification questionnaire (PQQ) or an invitation to tender
is not to be construed as a commitment by the MOD to place an order as a
result of the tendering exercise or at a later date. Any expenditure, work or
effort undertaken prior to contract award is accordingly a matter solely for
the commercial judgement of potential suppliers. Announcements herein may
also be published in the MOD Defence Contracts Bulletin, the Official Journal
of the European Union or the European Defence Agency’s Electronic
Bulletin Board as appropriate. Tracker Reference:
