Trusted commercial and procurement leadership for complex programmes in defence, government and critical industries
Naylor Purchasing Solutions (NPS) provides senior commercial and procurement expertise across defence and national security, central government, nuclear and aviation.
We support public bodies, consultancies and suppliers where commercial capability is stretched, unavailable or being rebuilt, bringing experienced leadership, specialist expertise and practical delivery support to complex, operational environments.
Discuss a requirementServices
Strategic commercial support for complex, high-assurance programmes, delivered by people who have run major procurement from the inside.
Commercial-as-a-Service
A managed bench of specialist, security-cleared commercial professionals, scaled up or down as your programme needs. One contract, one point of accountability, without building a permanent team.
Interim commercial leadership
Senior commercial leadership for organisations without an in-house function, including technology firms and suppliers preparing to bid to and contract with government for the first time.
Commercial transformation
Operating model design, governance, reporting and capability building for commercial functions that need to modernise and perform at pace.
Procurement strategy and sourcing
Route-to-market advice, competition design and evaluation under UK public procurement rules and NATO processes, including NSPA procedures, government frameworks and recompetes.
Bid and teaming support
Commercial input to bids, teaming agreements and associate arrangements, so the commercial case is as strong as the technical one.
International and allied markets
Commercial guidance for UK organisations pursuing NATO and US government opportunities, from route-to-market and partnering strategy to supplier registration and procurement requirements. NPS is NCAGE-coded and registered on SAM.gov.
How we work
We contract directly with clients, and as associates alongside established consultancies when a larger team or a specific framework is the right vehicle.
Every engagement starts with a clear statement of what success looks like and how it will be measured. We bring the people, the method and the reporting, and we hand back a stronger commercial function than we found.
Our network of commercial specialists is cleared to the levels defence, nuclear and government work demands, with details provided to clients on request.
