        "description": "The purpose of Submarine Escape and Survival Equipment (SESE) is to allow submariners to evacuate from a disabled submerged submarine, without external assistance, in a safe and controlled manner. The intention of the equipment is to keep the escapee dry and protected from the environment during and after ascent, and to provide buoyancy, freeboard, and thermal insulation at the surface. The SESE is a whole-body suit comprising a one-size fits all Submarine Escape Survival Suit (SESS) and a Single person life raft all contained in a protective valise. This competitive procurement is for supply of in the region of 4000 operational SESE and 100 training variant SESE, ad hoc repairs of training variant SESE on a call off basis and the potential to allow post design technical support to be undertaken. The Contract will have a duration of 5 years with an estimated value of approximately PS10M to PS20M. Quantity or scope: The purpose of Submarine Escape and Survival Equipment (SESE) is to allow submariners to evacuate from a disabled submerged submarine, without external assistance, in a safe and controlled manner.
