The Air Commodities Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence ("the Authority") intends to extend the existing In-Service Support contract ACCOMM/00047 - Supply of Finning Dan Forklift Trucks with Briggs Equipment Ltd for an additional 12 months, moving the contract expiry date from May 6th, 2021 to May 6th 2022. , Briggs Equipment Ltd are the existing supplier for this requirement and the extension of ACCOMM/00047 will enable the Authority's current equipment, consisting of 22 x Finning Dan forklift Trucks (FLT) to continue to be supported within the original scope of the Contract. The extension has an estimated value of £0.132M.., Considering timescales and the complexity of the requirement, if the contract were not be extended in this instance, it is likely a gap in technical knowledge and capability would jeopardise the safe operation of the fleet of vehicles and would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting Authority.
