DEFENCE DISCOUNT SCHEME

Descriptions

MOD’s current provision of Defence Discount Scheme (DDS) for Service Personnel, Veterans and Civilians is provided by Bluelight Card Company and expires on 31st May 2022. The purpose of this PIN is to establish whether there are any alternative suppliers capable of and willing to, supply this service after this date.The Authority’s intention is to re-let a further four year contract lasting until May 2026 and if there is potential for competition, to conduct that competition and if there is not, to award the new contract to Bluelight Card Company.Continued provision of this service will be on the basis that there is a NIL cost to MoD for the DDS Service. Currently DDS returns a % of profits to MoD in the form of a gainshare payment which is passed on to the four Service Welfare Central Funds. Any alternative provider would have to ensure that they could provide retail and online discounts to:Serving armed forces (regular and reservist)HM armed forces VeteransMOD Civilians (except contractors)Spouse/Partner of Serving PersonnelCadet ForcesBereaved Family MemberWar/service widow(er)NATO Personnel
