## Summary

The Ministry of Defence is initiating a tender for the Future Service Delivery Contract (FSDC) aimed at providing Armed Forces Pay, Pensions, and Military HR and Administrative Services. This procurement falls under the miscellaneous business and business-related services industry category and is based in London, UK. The procurement is currently at the Tender stage, with submissions due by 7th May 2018. The estimated value of the contract ranges from £410 million to £800 million, and it will span from 13th November 2019 to 12th November 2026. The procurement method being employed is a selective negotiated procedure.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses looking to expand in the public sector, particularly those specialising in administrative services for business operations, personnel and payroll services, and information technology solutions. Larger organisations with the capacity to manage complex service delivery and a robust infrastructure would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. The ability to innovate in service delivery, alongside a strong track record in handling similar services, will be essential for prospective bidders aiming to secure this contract with the Ministry of Defence.

## Notice

The proposed FSDC will cover the Armed Forces and Veterans Defence Business Services (DBS) services that are currently outsourced, which at a high level consist of: a. A variety of personnel support services for the Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force, in the form of Joint Personnel Administration (JPA), which is the MOD's current Military Payroll and Expenses HR system, and Pensions; and b. The development and maintenance of a range of supporting Information System (IS) applications and elements of IS infrastructure. This FSDC contract will: a. Enable the radical transformation and modernisation of these services; b. Continually develop change management and ways of working; and c. Potentially expand the current contract scope by including services currently carried out in house by Defence. A detailed Service Requirement Document (SRD) and Data Room has been developed and will be issued to those potential providers who are successful at the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) stage as part of the Invitation To Negotiate (ITN) documentation.
