## Summary

The Ministry of Defence, located in Andover, England, is planning a procurement process for the "Mercury Commercial Webinar" in the electrical machinery and equipment industry category. The tender, currently in the planning stage, involves early market engagement with a deadline for engagement set for August 2, 2023.

This opportunity is suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to collaborate with Mercury on their Land Domain 2035 S&T Capability Challenges. Businesses offering services in IT consulting, engineering, technical testing, and consultancy are well-suited to compete. Interested parties can register for the virtual event through Eventbrite and contact the Ministry of Defence commercial team for more information.

## Notice

This notice is not associated with any procurement activity at this point and is solely for the purposes of running an early market engagement webinar. It is our intent to hold a commercial early market engagement event on the 3rd of August 2023 to discuss MERCURY'S commercial approach to solve our Land Domain 2035 S&T Capability Challenges and means to collaborate. MERCURY will also use this webinar to gather intelligence to shape MERCURY's commercial approach through a request for information (RFI) questionnaire and answer any clarification questions though the Microsoft Teams chat function. Data gathered will directly influence and inform the programme's commercial approach and means to identify the risks, challenges, and opportunities that the commercial strategy and approach will bring. This webinar will be a virtual event, broadcasted and recorded via Microsoft Teams, with output available through our website and disseminated by email after the webinar. Please register through our Eventbrite Event, this also includes the agenda for the day and the Microsoft Teams link. Alternatively, you can contact us through our commercial team: DES-FCG-TeamMercury@mod.gov.uk.
