## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has awarded a contract for the Common Aviation Situational Awareness (CASA) project to INZPIRE Limited. The procurement method used was a selective restricted procedure, with a contract value of £9,700,705 in GBP. The tender period ended on July 30, 2023, and the contract will run from August 1, 2023, to August 31, 2028. The project is classified under electronic and electrical spare parts for military aerospace equipment, with the buying organisation located in Bristol, South West England.

This contract presents business growth opportunities for suppliers in the aerospace spare parts industry, particularly those offering electronic and electrical components for military equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete due to the project's suitability for SME involvement. For businesses interested in targeting defence contracts and providing specialised aviation solutions, this tender offers a chance to engage with a high-profile government department and contribute to enhancing aviation situational awareness capabilities across various helicopter platforms.

## Notice

CASA will be the replacement to the CSAT. The CASA requirement will enable a Pan-platform capability upgrade of CSAT, realising a common technical solution across the Apache E-model, Chinook all Mks, Wildcat RH, Dauphin N3, and Merlin Mk4/4A helicopters.
