This project aims to provide a fully managed service to support Light Role Collective Training events primarily at the British Army Training Unit in Kenya, with a contract value between £30 million and £55 million. The tender process is selective and follows a negotiated procedure, with a submission deadline of 18th March 2019. The contract is set to commence on 1st September 2020 and could extend until 31st August 2027, integrating capabilities with existing military systems and enhancing training efficiency. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in military training and simulation services, particularly those with capabilities in data storage and electronic military systems. Companies that can deliver innovative tracking and monitoring solutions will be well-suited to compete for this contract. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, potentially boosting their growth by engaging in complex defence contracts and collaborating with the Ministry of Defence on future training initiatives. ## Notice TESIK is required to provide the infrastucture, Tactical Engagement Simulation (TES) instrumentation and resources, via a fully managed service, to support Light Role Collective Training (CT) events. The CT events will predominantly be delivered via the STORM series of Exercises at British Army Training Unit Kenya (BATUK) but could be utilised to support other CT or Defence Activities globally upon demand. TESIK is to enable force elements to conduct realistic, live dry, force on force training whilst movements and combat performance of individuals, nominated vehicles and equipment are tracked, monitored and recorded. This is to provide objective evidence to support After Action Review (AAR), constructive feedback to the training audience, and evidence to support the documenting of the achievement of Collective Training Objectives (CTO) by Force Elements for the Chain of Command. On completion of the CT event, this data is to be presented to the Authority for storage and future use. TESIK must have the capability to integrate with the Synthetic Wrap capability provided by Project SCOPIC / SCOPIC2 (simulated ISTAR feed). There must be scope to integrate additional instrumented capabilities should they be developed and delivered during the life of the contract. TESIK must have the capacity to be interoperable with other UK TES systems and the TES systems used by NATO allies. It is anticipated that the contract duration shall run from 01 Sep 2020 through to 31 Aug 2025. The Authority shall also have irrevocable options to extend the contract by a further 2 x 1 year until 31 Aug 2027.
