This event seeks market engagement for the LDC4 programme and involves exploring current market capabilities to identify opportunities and challenges. The event will take place online on 19 February 2026, with registration required via Microsoft Form by 13 February 2026. The procurement stage is at the planning phase, involving goods and services, particularly tactical command, control and communication systems, and communications equipment, relevant to the public authority in central government. The legal basis for this tender falls under the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation. Businesses, especially SMEs, dealing with communications equipment and tactical systems, stand to gain growth opportunities through participation in this event. Suppliers with expertise in these fields will benefit from engaging directly with the MOD, learning about high-level programme requirements, and discussing future capabilities through focus groups. This Industry Day is a critical opportunity for businesses interested in contributing to the evolving landscape of military communications in the UK, helping them shape their offerings to meet MOD's future needs. ## Notice The LDC4 programme consists of multiple projects with the aim of delivering the next generation of tactical military communications in the land environment and providing the means to make informed and timely decisions, enabled by agile Communication Information Systems (CIS). The programme also includes projects that have already delivered equipment into service. The LDC4 Programme and TacSys Service Executive Teams, part of the UK Ministry of Defence, are jointly seeking to engage with suppliers via an Industry Day on 19 February 2026. The purpose of this engagement is to update the market on the current programme, explore key challenges and opportunities, and gain a clearer understanding of current market capabilities and offerings which may be relevant to how we will need to deliver our capabilities in the future.
