Supply and Delivery of Operational Ammunition 7.62 x 35mm (300 Blackout) Supersonic.
All ammunition for the MPS should:
• Be of excellent quality and reliability
• Have a stable and consistent trajectory performance;
• Have accurate and consistent impact performance;
• Have consistent and appropriate target penetration characteristics;
• Be compatible for use with existing MPS (fully referenced in Weapons Reference Section of each Technical Specification)
All ammunition must meet the criteria as detailed in each Technical and Requirements and Specification documents as referenced in the Invitation to Tender (ITT) Documents.
Ammunition will be subject to MPS Trial Testing (Document Ref: PPG-RPT-18040) with our own MPS Weapons systems and MPS scenarios to best fit our operating environment. This will be conducted on Bidder samples as part of the Invitation to Tender Section process.
High Level Requirements
The MPS requires various calibre’s of ammunition for operational use. The primary objectives for Police operational ammunition is:
• To minimise the danger to the innocent through use of effective penetration and controlled expansion/hydraulic displacement.
• To provide the Police Officer safety and efficiency through accuracy, reliability and consistent performance in all circumstances.
The General Technical Requirements are as listed below:
I. Shall conform to all dimensional specifications and performance standards recommended by the SAAMI and must be certified by C.I.P. including up to +P pressures.
II. All ammunition will be compatible with and safe to use in weapons built to C.I.P., SAAMI, MIL and NATO specifications.
III. Must be compatible for use with weapons currently in use within the MPS – see Specifications - ‘Reference Weapons.
IV. The manual extraction of chambered ammunition must be possible by hand.
V. The ammunition must not cause damage to the weapon.
VI. Operational ammunition shall have a bullet that retains its effectiveness after penetrating designated barrier materials.
VII. Operational ammunition shall use a low flash propellant.
VIII. Propellant shall be clean burning; not leaving substantial fouling or powder residue in the firearm.
IX. Must be of sufficient reliability and quality that an Officer has confidence that the ammunition will function when required.
X. Operational ammunition shall be capable of achieving rapid incapacitation.
XI. Shall be suitably accurate and consistent when fired from operational weapons at designated ranges of engagement.
XII. Shall not, by nature of its combustion products, create a health hazard to the user.
XIII. Shall conform with or exceed “NPCC Armed Professional Practice Police use of Firearms guidance” 2008 DSTL.
And as otherwise set out in full within the ITT documents.

Lots and Access to Framework
There are four (4) LOTS as detailed in the notice. The Authority will award to one (1) Bidder per LOT. All Bidders can submit tenders for any or all LOTs and can bid for multiple LOTS.
The MPS has provided within the Tender document estimated annual volumes. These are estimates based on historic spend and current requirements only. The volumes are NOT guaranteed but just to give an indication of potential demand.
It should be noted, that the aim is that any framework agreement awarded via this tender will be open for other Participating Bodies to call off against.
Estimated volumes for potential other Participating Bodies are NOT presented in the ITT Documents. As a general guide, the MPS often multiply our estimated volumes by three to reflect other participant’s potential demand. However, this has not been done in this case due to complexity and difference in weapons systems used by different Police forces. However, the estimated contract value range referenced in the OJEU notice has been inflated to accommodate potential spend, should Participating Bodies use the Framework agreement.
The MPS and other UK police forces, emergency services, authorities and chief constables (“Participating Bodies”) may wish to call off Goods from this framework on a non-exclusive basis.
The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), as the Contracting Authority, is tendering for the supply of ammunition on behalf of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) and other beneficiaries listed within this Notice, the Participating Bodies.
The contract will also be open to be accessed by the following contracting authorities (who may require one, several or all of the Lots);
(43 Police Forces in England and Wales and Police Forces in Northern Ireland and Scotland) and the other agencies listed below;
Avon and Somerset Constabulary, Bedfordshire Police, British Transport Police, Cambridgeshire Constabulary, Cheshire Constabulary, City of London Police, Civil Nuclear Constabulary, Cleveland Police, Cumbria Constabulary, Derbyshire Constabulary, Devon and Cornwall Police, Dorset Police, Durham Constabulary, Dyfed-Powys Police, Essex Police, Gloucestershire Constabulary, Greater Manchester Police, Hampshire Constabulary, Hertfordshire Constabulary, Humberside Police, Kent Police, Lancashire Constabulary, Leicestershire Police, Lincolnshire Police, Merseyside Police, Ministry of Defence Police, National Crime Agency, Norfolk Constabulary, North Wales Police, Northamptonshire Police, Northumbria Police, North Yorkshire Police, Nottinghamshire Police, Police Service of Scotland, Police Scotland, Police Service of Northern Ireland, South Wales Police, South Yorkshire Police, Staffordshire Police, Suffolk Constabulary, Surrey Police, Sussex Police, Thames Valley Police, Warwickshire Police, West Mercia Police, West Midlands Police, West Yorkshire Police and Wiltshire Police, UK Border Agency, Home Office.
