Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is procuring a Global Network Design Software under the title "Global Network Design Software" as part of the Defence Support Chain Operations and Movements (DSCOM) programme. This procurement, classified under the CPV code for software packages and information systems, is currently in the Award stage. The contract, valued at £95,000, was awarded on 10 December 2020 with the contract period running from 5 January 2021 to 5 January 2022. The software must be delivered to locations in the South West of England. The procurement method employed is selective, and the opportunity arises from a call-off from a framework agreement.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in software development and modelling solutions. Given the focus on military logistics and operations, companies with experience in defence-related software solutions and an understanding of the MOD's specifications will be particularly well-suited to compete. Such enterprises can potentially leverage this contract for growth in the defence sector and establish or strengthen relationships with a key government buyer.
