## Summary

The Ministry of Defence, based in London, has initiated an open procurement process titled "Ethical Edge Pan-Defence Pilot". The tender falls under the services industry category, specifically focussing on specialist training, safety training, and training simulators. The purpose is to develop a 15-minute online learning module designed to address unacceptable language use, complete with a facilitator pack for post-training discussions. The procurement method is an open competition below the threshold, with the tender stage currently active. Interested parties must submit their expressions of interest by 10th July 2026, and the final tender submissions are due by 28th July 2026. The contract period is expected to run from 10th August to 9th November 2026.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in e-learning and training solutions, especially those experienced in developing interactive and engaging online training interventions. The project requires the ability to create content that is both consistent across services and adaptable to specific requirements of each defence service. Companies with a strong background in training simulators and an understanding of defence sector needs are well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity, potentially establishing or expanding their presence within government contracts.

## Notice

The requirement is for a 15-minute pilot online learning intervention that challenges users with realistic scenarios of unacceptable language and a facilitator pack for post-online learning discussion with trg evaluation data incorporated. The pilot will allow users to select their service, experience consistent core gameplay with tailored variations relevant to each of the four services.
