PPA Rapid Response Procurement

Descriptions

Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S), Power, Propulsion and Auxiliaries (PPA), on behalf of the Ministry of Defence, is exploring options to establish an arrangement for the rapid procurement of codified and non-codified spares, and the provision of OEM Support, in support of equipment across the Royal Navy. Please note that the procurement of non-codified spares will include provision of data to support the Authority in initiating codification for these spares.

 

PPA supports multiple defence areas by delivering and sustaining systems that generate operational energy, provide propulsion, and enable cross-cutting auxiliary functions aboard naval vessels, including domestic, fire and rescue, and catering systems.
