Brief Description of the requirement: The UK Space Agency (UKSA) is an Executive Agency of the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS). It is responsible for UK civil space strategy and provides a clear, single voice for UK space ambitions. At the heart of UK efforts to explore and benefit from space, it is responsible for ensuring that the UK retains and grows its world leading strategic capabilities in space-based systems, technologies, science, services and applications. The UK Space Agency (UKSA) works with the Ministry of Defence (MOD) to develop our National Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) capabilities to monitor and warn of hazardous space events. The UKSA and MOD are seeking to enhance the UK's awareness of events in space and further develop the digital, analytical and sensor data needed to grow the UK's domestic space domain awareness (SDA) capabilities. Accurate data on the position, velocity or trajectory of objects is essential to mitigating the risks from man-made objects in space. UKSA are seeking to procure external SST data from both national and international suppliers to assess the risk of in-orbit collisions and monitor UK licensed spacecraft. The procurement of SST data follows a Prior Information Notice issued by the UK Space Agency in October 2020 to better understand market appetite and capability to supply SST data. The UKSA are seeking to partner with reliable and proven SST data suppliers, with extensive knowledge of space domain awareness, to procure SST data and assess how supplementary sensor data can be combined with current data sources to improve civil UK SST capability. The UKSA seeks to procure SST data which is: * High quality: accurate data on the position, velocity or trajectory of space objects * Timely: responsive sensor collection to data delivery time. * Assured: persistent observations and high data availability per object The procurement is separated across 2 Lots as follows: - Lot 1: SST data in Deep Space (MEO, GTO, GEO) - Lot 2: SST data in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) This contract will end on 31/03/2022 with two options to extend the contract by 6 months each (a further 12 months in total). Latest expiry date 31/03/2023. Please ensure you review all attached information to ensure a full understanding of this requirement. All attachments can be found with the Document Uploads tab within the Delta eSourcing Portal. This contract was awarded based on the evaluation criteria as set out in the RFP document.",
