Defence Sourcing Portal
The Defence Sourcing Portal (DSP) is an e-sourcing platform and one-stop-shop for contract opportunities, tendering and information on doing business with the whole of the Ministry of Defence (MOD).
Tender and contract opportunities valued over £10,000 are advertised on the DSP. Access and registration to bid for MOD opportunities on the DSP is free of charge and suppliers are also able to publish their sub-contracting opportunities on the portal. DSP also hosts important announcements for industry. Suppliers will be sent alerts via email with opportunities that are relevant to their industry, as well as emails informing them of market engagement events/webinars and MOD announcements that may be of interest.
Contracts finder portal
The MOD also advertises on the Government’s Contracts finder portal. This is where central government departments and other public bodies advertise tender and contract opportunities valued at £10,000 and above. Access to Contracts Finder is free of charge.
