## Summary

The Ministry of Defence, based in Bristol, England, is currently planning the procurement process for the Future Maintenance Management Services (FMMS) RFI & MSQ. This initiative is focused on replacing the current Unit Maintenance Management System (UMMS) with an integrated Asset Management System for future and in-service platforms. The engagement phase ends on 27th February 2022, with a market engagement notice published on 9th February 2022. This procurement is classified under the programming services of application software (CPV code 72212000).

This tender presents substantial opportunities for software development and maintenance companies, particularly those specialising in asset management systems for the maritime industry. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, as the project aims to invite solutions that can enhance the maintenance management experience, aligning with the latest technological advancements. Participants should showcase how their systems can fulfil the requirements outlined in the accompanying market suitability questionnaire.

## Notice

Navy Command Head Quarters (NCHQ) has a requirement to introduce a 'Future Maintenance Management System (FMMS)' solution for the future platforms as well as to progressively introduce the same to some of the in-service platforms to replace the current Maintenance Management System called UMMS (Unit Maintenance Management System). The aim of the FMMS solution is to introduce an 'integrated Asset Management System' and improved in-service support capability to the front line which sit within the existing support policy. The FMMS solution will make a difference in the 'user experience' and is expected to bring in the next generation of technology to manage the maintenance requirements and "end to end maintenance delivery" for each asset / system / platform following MOD Maintenance Strategy as may be applicable (e.g. Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) / Dynamic Reliability Centred Maintenance (DRCM) / Condition Based Maintenance (CBM)) delivery / Predictive Maintenance delivery as applicable for a particular equipment or system). FMMS is expected to have the front-end capability to manage the 'Maintenance Management Baseline (MMBL)' for each Platform and 'Dashboard driven front end capability' to monitor Maintenance Performance / Maintenance KPIs. The MSQ accompanying this RFI invites the maritime industry's providers of approved 'Asset Management System' / 'Maintenance Management System', without any binding commitment or obligations at this stage, to outline what their system can offer and how their system meets the requirements of FMMS as outlined in said MSQ and supporting documentation together with their cost model for the proposed Asset Management System.
