Every year the Ministry of Defence spends around £16 billion on goods and services.
Nobody within the UK spends more and nobody can match the range of their requirements. The MOD buys from multinational companies, down to the smallest limited companies and sole traders.
The Ministry of Defence spends over half of its budget each year on equipment, works and miscellaneous stores and services, ranging from tanks, ships and aircraft, through to tools, clothing, food, domestic products, sports and leisure equipment and window cleaning, and much more besides.
To get the best value for money, the MOD encourages new suppliers of all sizes - including small firms - to compete for defence business.
