Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed the procurement process titled "713225450 - CARP Testing and Exercising," which falls under the industry category of systems testing services. This initiative, aimed at enhancing the MOD's digital resilience through the development of a cyber recovery plan test and exercise process, was structured as a call-off from a framework agreement under a selective procurement method. The contract covers the South West region of the United Kingdom, with the relevant postcode SN13 9NR, and was officially awarded on 11th June 2025. The contract period runs from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, with a total value of £922,988 GBP.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in systems testing services, particularly those that can contribute to enhancing digital resilience.
