About

The Ministry of Defence awarded a contract to Worcestershire Medal Service Limited and Firmin & Sons Limited for the provision of medals, stars, clasps, awards, badges, coins, and other associated items.

The requirement was split into two lots: Lot 1 for medals, stars, clasps, awards, and other associated items, and Lot 2 for badges and coins.

The competition resulted in two framework agreements with two different suppliers.

The MOD Medals Office will call off items as required, and in exceptional circumstances, the contracts may be used by other government departments to order items.

The frameworks are for a duration of 2 years with options for the Authority, at its discretion, to extend them in monthly or annual increments for up to an additional 2 years.

The contract value is £15,000,000.
