What the notice says

The Authority plans to establish a 4 year Framework with 2 Lots to provide inspection and repair services for the overseas Civilian Armoured Vehicle fleet it manages. Each Lot will provide services within a defined regional area. Lot 1 Services within Ukraine, Middle East and Africa Regions. Lot 2 Services within the America's, Europe and Asia Regions. Each vehicle within the global Civilian Armoured Vehicle (CAV) fleet FCDO Services manages is required to be independently inspected and serviced every 12-16 months during its operational life. The objective of these inspections is to service each operational CAV and inspect vehicles for roadworthiness and the condition of all visible armour. A report will be produced detailing the assessed condition of the AV, defects and remedial work undertaken to rectify faults during the inspection. Additional repairs required identified by personnel in country or during inspection services are also in scope of services to be delivered under this Framework 2 suppliers will be awarded to each Lot
