    Brief

    The UK Ministry of Defence seeks to maintain in-service support and provisioning of spares for critical communication equipment used across Defence operations and training. Key equipment includes Joint Service Aircrew Headsets, MK10 helmet communications systems, and the Army's Tactical Systems Close Combat Communication Hearing Protection System (CC CHPS). The incumbent contract (708493450) expires 30 September 2026. Support services must ensure continuous equipment availability, supply of spare parts, and responsive technical support to Defence personnel engaged in operational and training activities. This is an essential procurement to prevent service interruption for equipment currently in widespread use across all Defence branches.
