Multiparts

Multipart has been supplying spares to the MoD since 1919, making MoD both one of the company's oldest and one of the company's most important clients. Multipart Defence was formed in 1997 to focus Multipart's inventory management and logistics expertise on the strategic goals and demanding challenges faced by today's Armed Forces, under continual... pressure to achieve more with less. Working alongside the evolving MoD support organisation, from agencies such as ESPPA, through the Defence Logistics Organisation and now the newly formed Defence Equipment and Supplies (DE&S), Multipart Defence provides best practice solutions that improve the readiness and availability of equipment, while reducing repair times and inventory holdings. Quite simply, the company put the right parts in the right place at the right time to ensure the Armed Forces have operational equipment. The company's continuing success in supporting the MoD is shown through the company's groundbreaking and innovative support contracts such as CRISP, TRADERS, GSIPT and C Vehicles. While the company's offices are based in Multipart's new 256,000 sq.ft. HQ and Distribution Centre in Chorley, the company's operations take place within the company's dedicated Defence warehouse, strategically located inside the MoD Defence Storage & Distribution Agency's site at Bicester. This 108,000 sq. ft. warehouse is "behind the wire" and adjacent to the Military Supply Chain, making it the ideal place to house all of the inventory in support of the Challenger 2 main battle tank, the Rapier FSC missile system, and the MoD's world-wide fleet of construction equipment: the company's inventory and £120m of MoD-owned legacy stock under the company's custodianship. The Government's Defence Industrial Strategy continues to set challenging goals for the MoD and provides Multipart Defence with new opportunities for growth and the continuation of the company's long-standing partnership.Read More
