The process is in the planning stage, with a contract value of £4.9 million in GBP. The intended contract period is from September 30, 2023, to March 31, 2025. The buying organisation, Ministry of Defence, based in Salisbury, England, requests interested parties to register on the R-Cloud portal by June 2023. The procurement method is a tender, and the process aims to gauge market interest before the competition in June. This procurement opportunity by the Ministry of Defence presents potential for growth to businesses specializing in software packages, IT services, and research and development consultancy services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. The delivery locations for the project include various regions such as the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. Businesses in these sectors are well-suited to compete for this opportunity and should engage with the Ministry of Defence to explore collaboration possibilities and contribute to the project's success. ## Notice This opportunity is to make the market aware of an upcoming requirement due to be posted on the R-Cloud portal estimated in June 2023 (https://rcloud.dstl.gov.uk/).
