## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has awarded a contract for Research Consultancy Services related to Space Environment Assessment. The contract value is £199,500 GBP, with a contract period from 23rd December 2022 to 31st March 2023. The procurement method used was selective, calling off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 25th November 2022, and the delivery addresses are in the South East region of the United Kingdom (postal code HA6 3HP).

This contract presents an opportunity for businesses, especially those providing research consultancy services, to engage with the Ministry of Defence and contribute to the development of space capabilities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited for this opportunity. The contract aims to inform future capability development and drive innovation within the space domain, fostering collaboration with various stakeholders, including industry and academia.

## Notice

The Space domain is both rapidly evolving and moving to the forefront of military operations. As outlined in the Defence Space Strategy, it is critical that Defence have a current evidence base through which to formulate agile and relevant decision-making with regards to development of Space capability. It is also intended to allow contributing stakeholders from across government to derive benefit as well, and encourage closer, more collaborative working, both across Government and with other stakeholder groups such as Industry and Academia. It will also provide direction to innovation at a granular level, as well as informing general areas of opportunity for cross-cutting both within the Space capability areas, and with other domains. This will address the current lack of high-level, evidenced assessment and evaluation within the Space domain to compliment and inform direction of travel for future capability development and innovation.
