This involves seeking a Systems Integrator to deliver a pan-Defence Engineering Through Life Support capability using Commercial Off The Shelf software. The procurement is in the planning stage and has an estimated contract value of £100-150 million. The procurement process will begin with a Contract Notice in January 2023, followed by Supplier Selection in April 2023. The DEEAMS procurement presents an opportunity for businesses in the services sector, particularly those experienced in database services, inventory management software, enterprise resource planning software, and database systems. Companies with expertise in Defence services and military defence services are well-suited to compete for this contract. The required solution will involve data migration, system integration, training provision, deployment support, and knowledge transfer over the course of the contract. The Ministry of Defence, located in the United Kingdom, will be the buying authority overseeing this procurement process. ## Notice Please note there is an update to security requirement in Section VI: Complementary Information. 1. Description The DES Digital delivery team within Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S) is preparing to initiate a competitive procurement process to award a contract for a new Defence Equipment Engineering and Asset Management System (DEEAMS). DEEAMSs will provide a pan-Defence Engineering Through Life Support (ETLS) capability. It will rationalise the existing fragmented IT application landscape not only replacing the 3-core domain Equipment & Asset & Management Systems (JAMES, UMMS, Goldesp) but also a substantial number (20+) of bespoke applications and paper-based systems. DEEAMS will address a significant scope of activity within Defence Support specifically Engineering and Equipment Support, which includes Maintenance & Repair, Engineering Planning, Obsolescence, Technical Information, Safety Management, enhancing and expanding the capabilities of the current Equipment & Asset Management (E&AM) applications. These activities are serviced by more than 100,000 users across the Defence Support Network comprising MoD, Civil Servants, and Industry partners. The DEEAMS procurement seeks a Systems Integrator (SI) to deliver an ETLS capability configured from Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) software. The SI will manage the introduction of the solution into service including data migration from legacy systems, integration with other MOD systems, DEEAMS system acceptance and assurance. The SI will also deliver a core basic training package for further development by a third party. Support is required during the incremental deployment of the solution over three releases (excluding help desk support, which will be provided by Defence Digital) and for one year following delivery of the final release, including the handover of appropriate data and knowledge transfer to facilitate downstream support by a third party. It should be noted that this contract will cover the initial licencing of the software for the duration of the SI contract. The role of the SI will effectively cease at this point, and the Authority will provide training and subsequent In-Service support (including licencing & change management) for the system via alternative arrangements. The contract excludes any user devices, which are to be covered under separate arrangements. Procurement Timescales & Contract Value. The Authority anticipates issue of Contract Notice and to start Supplier Selection in January 2023 with the issue of an Invitation To Negotiate in April 2023. The current estimated value range of the Contract is PS100-150m ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/035836-2022 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Dec 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £150,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF DEFENCE | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS34 8JH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK5 West of England | | ITL 3 | TLK52 Bath & North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire | | Local authority | South Gloucestershire | | Electoral ward | Stoke Park & Cheswick | | Westminster constituency | Filton and Bradley Stoke | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 48430000 - Inventory management software package - 48451000 - Enterprise resource planning software package - 48610000 - Database systems - 48612000 - Database-management system - 72320000 - Database services ## Release History - 19 Dec 2022 at 13:14 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/035836-2022 ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/defence-equipment-and-support ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
