The procurement method is selective with a restricted procedure (above threshold). The tender involves the provision of training simulation services in security equipment and related areas. The contract period starts on March 8, 2024, and ends on March 8, 2027. The tender deadline is November 21, 2023. The delivery region is South West, United Kingdom, and the contract value is GBP 3,994,593. This opportunity created by the Ministry of Defence for training simulation services presents a chance for businesses specialising in security equipment training and simulation to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would find this tender particularly suitable. Businesses with experience in military vehicles, warships, aircraft, missiles, and spacecraft simulation can leverage their expertise to excel in this competitive procurement process. The tight procurement deadline and specific contract requirements call for companies with a strong track record in the defence industry to seize this growth opportunity. ## Notice 706840450 - Provision of Training Simulation Services - The increasingly realistic nature of simulation dramatically reduces the delta between training and operations. It provides the ability to deliver realistic simulation to the increasingly demanding Operational Readiness Mechanism (ORM) which not only de-risks training evolutions but improves operational effectiveness and can increase mission success. Force Generation (FGen) exercises involve in excess of 600 SP, multiple Fixed Wing (FW), Rotary Wing (RW) and Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (ISR) platforms. All are integrated, monitored, and tested with the aid of simulation. This must be managed by one civilian company, coordinating exercise support. By having a single point of contact for exercise coordinators, it streamlines problem solving and eases the logistical burden on FGen exercises. This allows much needed flexibility when conducting multiple scenarios in several countries. Please see Annex A of the DPQQ Additional Information document for more information. Envisaged number of operators: Objective criteria for choosing the limited number of candidates: Please see Section 1 Part 5 "Scoring Methodology and Progress to the Next Stage" in the DPQQ Additional Information document for more information. Candidates will be limited to the top five scores. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b95c080-660a-494b-84c6-be0bd7a65140 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Nov 2023 | | Submission deadline | 28 Nov 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 8 Mar 2024 - 8 Mar 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £6,807,478 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF DEFENCE | | Locality | CORSHAM | | Post town | Swindon | | Postcode | SN13 9GB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK72 Wiltshire | | Local authority | Wiltshire | | Electoral ward | Corsham Without | | Westminster constituency | Chippenham | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80610000 - Training and simulation in security equipment - 80620000 - Training and simulation in firearms and ammunition - 80630000 - Training and simulation in military vehicles - 80640000 - Training and simulation in warships - 80650000 - Training and simulation in aircrafts, missiles and spacecrafts - 80660000 - Training and simulation in military electronic systems ## Release History - 16 Nov 2023 at 10:06 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b95c080-660a-494b-84c6-be0bd7a65140 - 23 Oct 2023 at 10:53 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b95c080-660a-494b-84c6-be0bd7a65140 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b95c080-660a-494b-84c6-be0bd7a65140 16th November 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
