## Summary

The Submarine Delivery Agency, a central government authority based in Bristol, awarded a contract titled "SDA ISR Enterprise Architecture Transparency Notice" to Price Waterhouse Coopers LLP. This procurement falls under the defence services category and is intended to support the agency in understanding its technology landscape and enhancing AI-powered efficiencies. The procurement stage has been completed with a direct award, a method chosen due to the sensitive nature of the information and need for specific clearances. The contract period starts on 19 June 2025 and concludes on 31 July 2025, with the total contract value being £360,000. This tender is set within the context of the UK’s legal framework 2023/54.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the defence sector that possess the required security clearances and technical capabilities. While Price Waterhouse Coopers LLP was the sole awardee due to stringent requirements, similar future contracts could offer substantial growth prospects. Enterprises with expertise in defence technologies, AI integration, and strategic consultancy can leverage such tenders to expand their market presence and demonstrate their value in complex government projects.

## Notice

The SDA needs to secure business critical support to secure a comprehensive understanding of its current technology landscape and identify key enablers for AI-powered operational and business efficiencies. This will ensure that the agency's digital & data strategies are coherent, strategically aligned and effectively positioned to leverage growth and efficiency.

### Procurement Information

As such PWC were the only possible down selected supplier, which delivered VfM against this key requirement.
