Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence seeking services for a Training Needs Analysis for Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) Training. The contract, valued at approximately £199,178.98, falls under the technical testing, analysis and consultancy services category, and is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. This procurement was conducted through a selective method, with an award date of 8 November 2017, and the contract period is set from 9 November 2017 to 31 March 2018. The tender period ended on 27 October 2017, indicating the previous solicitation for submissions prior to awarding the contract.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in training and consultancy services within the defence sector, particularly those with capabilities aligned to ISTAR requirements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate expertise in developing tailored training programmes for military personnel would be particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts. Engaging with this procurement could enable businesses to expand their footprint within the public sector, as well as enhance their reputation through collaboration with a prominent government entity like the Ministry of Defence.

Notice Title

Training Needs Analysis for Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) Training

Notice Description

D-lnfo has been directed to assume responsibility as the Army's ISTAR proponent and establish a HoC Information Manoeuvre (WEF 1 Sep 17). IST AR is an essential component to providing Understanding, a key component of Information Manoeuvre and Integrated Action, the Army's unifying doctrine. Currently, there is no provision of individual IST AR training in the Land Environment (LE) beyond cap badge-specific Phase 2 training (predominantly INT CORPS) and employment training on specific capabilities (e.g. MUAS or EWSI). This is an Army-wide issue with numerous posts that have IST AR as a primary or secondary role that require IST AR individual training.
