This Contract has been awarded. The Defence Technology Exploitation Programme (DTEP) is an initiative designed to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the UK to develop innovative materials, technologies and processes, and to enhance Defence supply chains. MOD requires a provider to coordinate DTEP industry project review panels. These UK wide industry project review panels will provide SMEs with proposal development guidance, detailed feedback to the applicants to enable them to refine and strengthen their applications prior to submission, as well as potential routes to market for commercialising these collaborative projects. The Supplier shall be responsible for the management and implementation of these industry project review panels. The panels will provide industry input/perspectives to the MOD Assessor Panel who will select projects to be supported by DTEP. The Supplier will be required to develop and maintain a pool of industry panel members.
