        "description": "This is a market consultation. The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) and supporting Questionnaire is to advise suppliers of the potential Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) procurement, gain an understanding of the market appetite for supplying these services, and seek feedback from potential suppliers that may inform the final contracting approach to the services. This builds on a commitment to engage with Industry, by sharing information and seeking input from the market to enable us to develop the final requirement and tender documentation in a fair and transparent manner. DE&S Salvage and Marine Operations (SALMO) Delivery Team (DT) have a requirement for the provision of In-Service Support (ISS) to the Diving Life Support (DLS) portfolio of equipment. The DLS portfolio provides a diving capability to the UK Military, led by the Royal Navy, to support a full range of technical and support activities to enable the delivery of underwater Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), underwater engineering, underwater search and engineering tasks in support of UK Defence Tasks.
