## Summary

The Home Office is planning a procurement process for the Coastal Radar Data Integration project. The Joint Maritime Security Centre aims to enrich their Maritime Situational Awareness programme by integrating coastal radar data from existing radar operators to improve coastal surveillance. The anticipated procurement method involves a further competition through the Crown Commercial Service Space Enabled and Geospatial Services Dynamic Purchasing System. Interested suppliers are required to register on the Home Office e-Sourcing Portal by 13th October 2023. An Industry Day is scheduled for 18th October 2023, with potential tendering process commencement in December 2023/January 2024.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in radar technology integration and data management services. Companies capable of managing data from multiple radar sites, processing radar tracks, and ensuring data compliance would be well-suited to compete. The tender specifies a potential contract length of up to 5 years, with opportunities to work with existing radar site data providers. Suppliers looking to engage with the UK Government in the field of radar technology and maritime security should consider expressing interest in this opportunity.

## Notice

The Joint Maritime Security Centre (JMSC) delivers accurate and real time Maritime Situational Awareness (MSA) for the UK Government maritime security stakeholders. This MSA is facilitated by the Royal Navy Maritime Domain Awareness Programme. To enrich and improve the coastal surveillance data, JMSC seeks to capture coastal radar data provided by existing radar operators such as the Ministry of Defence and the Maritime Coast Guard Agency and include these in the MSA. JMSC is seeking a lead radar data integrator to manage the commercial relationship with radar providers, undertake the engineering effort needed to acquire individual radar tracks, process these, and provide these to the MDA Programme. Data products will need to be analysed and fused to provide a single clean tracks feed. All aspects of security and data compliance will need to be managed. JMSC has a number of radar suppliers already through an existing supplier and this programme will grow the radar coverage around the UK as a fully managed data service.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The appointed lead data radar integrator will be expected to manage data from 13 existing radar sites located throughout the UK coastal regions with data from c27 radar heads, and then integrate data from further additional sites through the lifetime of the contract at a rate of c5 - 8 new sites per annum. It should be noted that the appointed lead radar integrator will be required to work with the existing contracted radar site data providers (QinetiQ, Aquilla, Kongsberg and Denbridge Marine Limited) throughout the lifetime of the contract. The potential length of this contract will be up to 5 years in total. The content of this PIN, including the nature of works, services and estimated value, may be subject to change.
