Notice Title

704294450-BEROE Framework - Contract Finder-Award Notice

Notice Description

This Contract Award Notice is to announce the award of the 704294450 - BEROE RAPS(O) Framework to six suppliers, CGI UK IT Ltd, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, RHEA, Telespazio Vega UK and Terma A/S. The UK MoD requires a secure Ground Segment software solution for tasking, monitoring and controlling a space-based ISR constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites(s), which will form an integral component of the UK MoD ground segment architecture, acting as the primary mission control system for the Customer Satellite Operations Centre. The UK MoD is therefore seeking a provider to develop a technology roadmap, secure software development plan and assist (through demonstration & prototype development) with the maturation of system requirements and the development of a software architecture that will deliver an assured Mission Control System for space-based ISR command & control (C2) which is scalable to meet future operational needs, and enable interoperability with UK MoD owned space assets. The project, named BEROE, during the competition and development phases, will focus on maturing, deriving and identifying UK MoD requirements, testing hypotheses, addressing key challenges and stimulating industry to develop product roadmaps to support future operational systems targeted for non-civilian use.
