Mr. Soames: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on current suppliers of clothing at the Defence
Clothing and Textile Agency, Bicester. [214013]
Mr. Ingram: The Defence Clothing and Textiles Agency (DCTA) was disestablished in October 2000. Its clothing procurement function
was subsumed into the Defence Clothing Integrated Project Team (DC IPT) which was established on 1 April 2001 and is based at
Caversfield, near Bicester.
The DC IPT has a wide range of suppliers from small companies to larger Prime Contractors who supply operational clothing, personal
protection equipment, parade and ceremonial wear and physical and adventurous training equipment.
As part of the Defence Logistic Organisation's procurement reform strategy, DC IPT has been moving towards letting larger term
contracts with Prime Contractors for inventory items that have been grouped together in Product Groups, a process known as supplier
base optimisation. Contracts for the supply of Tape Seam Garments, Footwear, Cut and Sewn products have been let, together with a
number of smaller contracts for Ceremonial Headwear and Physical and Adventurous Training equipment which have followed the same
principles.
Such methods of contracting are delivering increasing value for money and also enable the more efficient use of resources, while
maintaining the quality standards demanded by the Ministry of Defence.
