## Summary

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has awarded a contract for uplift works at the Defence Strategic Radio Service (DSRS) Site 1, under the framework category of architectural and building-surveying services. The procurement, titled "DSRS Site 1 Uplift Works," involves various stages, starting with a feasibility study and fixed price submission for a design to meet accreditation requirements. The works, which are valued at £2,500,000, will be conducted in the South West region of the United Kingdom. This selective procurement was initiated as a tender on 12th August 2024 and will run from 13th August 2024 to 30th April 2025.

Businesses specialising in architectural, surveying, and construction services, particularly SMEs, have the opportunity to engage in substantial development work and establish a relationship with the Ministry of Defence. The project, being part of a larger scope, aims to ensure robust and effective High Frequency (HF) services for the UK Government. Firms that have proficiency in long-range communications infrastructure and project management will find this contract particularly beneficial to broaden their portfolio and client base. McAndrew Martin Limited has been selected as the principal contractor and designer for this phase, highlighting the potential for scalable projects.

## Notice

The Defence Strategic Radio Service (DSRS) provides long-range radio communica-tions for MOD and UK Government and will deliver safe, robust and effective High Frequency (HF) Services. The current infrastructure does not provide the accreditation required and therefore needs to be uplifted accordingly. These Uplift works will allow DSRS to achieve the new acceptable accreditation. The project will be completed in multiple phases and the 'Phase One' (Design) deliverables will be for a feasibility study and submission of a firm price for the design to build and deliver the overall project requirements. Specific Requirements for Phase One includes: * Co-ordination of an initial requirements meeting with the client and stake-holders * Surveys to confirm current systems capabilities. * An integrated schedule for the design & build phase. * A Work Breakdown Structure and associated specifications for Phase 1 works as detailed. * A fixed price for the delivery of work with the Supplier acting as Principal Contractor and Principal Designer. * Initial Risk Register for Phase 2 of the works. * ROM Costs for Phase 2 (build/installation works) PLEASE NOTE: Further Phases of work will be within the scope of this Contract (more detail on the specification and hence max value of PS2.5m) but will be developed from the findings of Phase 1 and its survey evidence / design.
