Application Management Services for the Radiological Response and Emergency Management System (RREMS)

Description: The Radiological Response and Emergency Management System (RREMS) is a system managed by the Department for Energy, Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and used by the United Kingdom which records and analyses the level of radioactivity across the United Kingdom. DESNZ is the lead government department in the event of a civil nuclear emergency and previously used the Radioactive Incident Monitoring Network ("RIMNET") to support this function. The Ministry of Defence ("MOD") is the lead government department in the event of a defence nuclear emergency and previously used the Nuclear Emergency Response Information Management System ("NERIMS") to support this function.

Summary: The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) intends to buy application management services for the Radiological Response and Emergency Management System (RREMS), a UK-wide system that records and analyses radioactivity. DESNZ uses RREMS in its role as lead department for civil nuclear emergencies; the Ministry of Defence leads on defence nuclear emergencies. RREMS follows earlier systems used for these functions, including the Radioactive Incident Monitoring Network and the Nuclear Emergency Response Information Management System. The work is IT application support and management, classified under CPV 72000000. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom.

HMCTS Legacy Archive Recovery and Digitisation

Description: The Ministry of Justice, through His Majesty's Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS), is undertaking preliminary market engagement to support consideration of a potential legacy archive recovery and digitisation requirement relating to historic index records currently held on obsolete media. HMCTS holds a substantial archive of historic index records, primarily across microfiche and cassette media. The current estimated scope includes approximately 20,000 microfiche sheets containing around 2 million records, and 658 cassette media units containing around 6.5 million records. The total estimated archive is therefore approximately 8.5 million records. There are also historic records held in books, although these are currently considered lower volume and lower priority than the microfiche and cassette records. The current arrangements rely on legacy physical and digital media, manual search activity, local operational knowledge (read more...)

Summary: The Ministry of Justice, through His Majesty’s Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS), is exploring recovery and digitisation of historic court and tribunal index records held on obsolete media. The archive includes microfiche and cassette records, with historic books a lower-priority source. The work under consideration spans inventory and condition assessment; technical discovery and data recovery; high-resolution scanning; image enhancement, optical character recognition and data extraction; validation, de-duplication and quality assurance; and creation of a shared data model. It may also require a secure searchable repository with access controls, audit logging and reporting, plus service transition, user guidance and business change. The purpose is to improve retrieval, consistency, resilience, preservation and future access. This is a single service requirement, with delivery associated with HMCTS in England; no specific delivery site is stated.

Wintering bird surveys on the Humber Estuary, January 2027 to March 2027

Description: This project involves undertaking wintering bird surveys in agricultural fields and other open habitats up to 10 km from the Humber Estuary SPA. The aim of this project is to collect additional data to support a Natural England-led Habitat Suitability Modelling project. The modelling is intended to help identify areas of potentially suitable habitat for wintering waterbirds and wading bird species associated with the Humber Estuary SPA, helping to improve our understanding of their distribution in the surrounding landscape. This commission requires wintering bird surveys at 40 sample locations between January and the end of February (or early March if required).

Summary: Natural England is seeking wintering bird survey services to gather data for its Habitat Suitability Modelling project for the Humber Estuary Special Protection Area. The surveys cover agricultural fields and other open habitats within 10 km of the estuary, at 40 sample locations. The resulting data will help identify potentially suitable habitat for wintering waterbirds and wading birds associated with the estuary, improving understanding of their distribution across the surrounding landscape. The work is environmental survey services, delivered in the Humber area of England. It is a focused field-survey commission supporting habitat modelling, rather than a general habitat-management or restoration project.

In-Orbit Manufacturing (IOM) Maturation Research & Development Projects

Description: The UK Space Agency (UKSA) is launching a Contracts for Innovation competition to fund approximately two In-Orbit Manufacturing (IOM) Maturation Research & Development Projects. The competition will support the research, development and maturation of an In-Orbit Manufacturing process and associated payload. Projects will undertake proportionate design, prototyping, analysis and testing to achieve Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 4/5 by the Final Review milestone and establish a credible route to a potential future demonstration in an appropriate microgravity environment. The IOM Maturation Projects will: * Mature the IOM manufacturing process and associated payload to TRL 4/5 by the Final Review milestone, generating evidence against relevant performance indicators (such as quality, performance and quantity). * Develop and compare credible routes to a future microgravity demonstration, identifying the developments required to progress (read more...)

Summary: The Department for Science, Innovation & Technology, through the UK Space Agency, is seeking research and development projects to mature an in-orbit manufacturing process and its associated payload. The work covers design, prototyping, analysis and testing, with the aim of reaching technology readiness level 4 or 5 and establishing a credible route to a later demonstration in microgravity. Projects should compare possible demonstration routes, identify the development needed to progress towards a demonstration by 2030, and strengthen the commercial case for the capability against customer and end-user needs. The research is also intended to inform future UK Space Agency investment and procurement decisions. The work is associated with spacecraft, satellites and space technology, and delivery is in the United Kingdom.
