## Summary

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory in Salisbury, England has awarded a contract for the project "Stone Soup Algorithms" to ROKE MANOR RESEARCH LIMITED. The procurement method used was 'selective' through a 'Call-off from a framework agreement.' The contract value is £282,364.83 in GBP, with a contract period starting on February 20, 2023, and ending on March 15, 2024.

This tender for research services in the South East region of the United Kingdom offers opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to compete. Businesses specialised in research services could benefit from this tender opportunity. The project involves the assessment of tracking and state estimation algorithms, targeted at research-level performance rather than operational use.

## Notice

Stone Soup is an open source project for the assessment of tracking and state estimation algorithms. The framework is built in a modular way using an object-oriented approach, enabling construction of algorithms from sub-components. Stone Soup is designed for the assessment of algorithms and as such is aimed at a research-level of code and performance, with tests and documentation for simple scenarios; it is not aimed at operational or real-time use.
