Notice Title
UK Satellite Based Augmentation System Precise Point Positioning (SBAS PPP) Early Market Engagement
Notice Description
Early market engagement to obtain the views of industry to help inform the government business case development on the options of developing and delivering UK SBAS capabilities.
Lot Information
Lot 1
The objective of this early engagement is to obtain the views of the industry to inform government business case development on the options of developing and delivering UK Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) capabilities. The October 2023 Government Policy Framework for Greater Position, Navigation & Timing (PNT) Resilience included a commitment to develop a proposal for a UK Precise Point Positioning Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS) to replace the UK's use of the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS), monitor Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and enable GNSS dependent high accuracy Position for autonomous and precision uses. Since leaving the EU, the UK opted not to continue accessing Europe's regional SBAS, the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service. In October 2023, the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) announced a new Government Policy Framework for Greater PNT Resilience, to address the UK's future PNT needs which included developing a proposal for a solution to replace the UK's full use of EGNOS services. The UK Space Agency have been leading on exploring a business case and are now in a position to obtain the views of the market on how to further progress the business case. Views of all the market engaged in delivering part or whole space-based PNT solutions are encouraged. The Request For Information (RFI) document attached provides further detail on the context and specifics of this engagement. Any subsequent procurement activity following this early Market Engagement and RFI is at the discretion of the UK Space Agency and subject to approvals.
