Defence and aerospace

Tenders and teaming agreements, read in full

Pull obligations, liquidated damages and bank guarantee terms out of every tender,
and review OEM, supplier and teaming agreements against your own positions.

The challenge

Government paper and commercial paper, one team.

Defence and aerospace companies answer RFPs under the Defence Acquisition Procedure 2020 and the Defence Procurement Manual 2025, sign integrity pacts and performance bank guarantees, and negotiate teaming agreements, offset partner agreements, transfer of technology and licence agreements, supply agreements and NDAs with foreign OEMs, alongside security clauses under the Official Secrets Act 1923 and export controls.

  1. Long tender sets

    An RFP, its standard contract document and the annexures run to hundreds of pages, and the obligations are spread across all of them.

  2. Two kinds of paper

    Government contracts and commercial agreements follow different rules, with the same headcount reviewing both.

  3. Terms that bite later

    Liquidated damages, bank guarantees and IP terms agreed at bid stage shape the whole programme.
