What is being bought

DE&S (the Authority), under the Rapid Agile Prototyping, Scaled for Operations (RAPSO) Framework, intends to issue an Invitation To Tender “Lite” (ITT Lite) on behalf of Air Command (the Customer) to support the task objectives described in the Aim (below) and award zero (0), one (1) or more (with the intent being to take through two (2)) suppliers through to initial framework tasking under Lot 1). The intent for future BEROE work is to be placed under Lot 1 and/or the Operational Lot 2 subject to Authority approvals. Aim: The UK MoD requires a secure Ground Segment software solution for tasking, monitoring and controlling a space-based ISR constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites(s), which will form an integral component of the UK MoD ground segment architecture, acting as the primary mission control system for the Customer Satellite Operations Centre. The UK MoD is therefore seeking a provider to develop a technology roadmap, secure software development plan and assist (through demonstration & prototype development) with the maturation of system requirements and the development of a software architecture that will deliver an assured Mission Control System for space-based ISR command & control (C2) which is scalable to meet future operational needs, and enable interoperability with UK MoD owned space assets.

Lot details

Ground segment software solutions (core plus adaptations)

The UK MoD requires a secure Ground Segment software solution for tasking, monitoring and controlling a space-based ISR constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites(s), which will form an integral component of the UK MoD ground segment architecture, acting as the primary mission control system for the Customer Satellite Operations Centre. The UK MoD is therefore seeking a provider to develop a technology roadmap, secure software development plan and assist (through demonstration & prototype development) with the maturation of system requirements and the development of a software architecture that will deliver an assured Mission Control System for space-based ISR command & control (C2) which is scalable to meet future operational needs, and enable interoperability with UK MoD owned space assets. The project, named BEROE, during the competition and development phases (refer to tender process stage 1-4), will focus on maturing, deriving and identifying UK MoD requirements, testing hypotheses, addressing key challenges and stimulating industry to develop product roadmaps to support future operational systems targeted for non-civilian use. Bidders will be requested to describe their ground segment software solution in terms of overall design, architecture and interfaces that enable the integration of protocols, operating procedures, development of user interfaces and compatibility with open standards. Additional information: For every task in Lot 1 a new award notice will be raised notifying the new values.

Operational Lot

Access to this Lot will be achieved through successful development tasks from Lot (1). If an output of a development task results in a “Minimum Viable Product” the Contractor involved in that Task may be added to Lot two (2) as a single entity to enable the Authority to proceed to targeted tasks to purchase items to enter service.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Spacecraft, satellites and launch vehicles (34712000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 344,5603 median · 24 average (1,841 of 4,560 with a bid count)3.7 average (2,057 of 4,560 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

The intent for future BEROE work is to be placed under Lot 1 and/or the Operational Lot 2 subject to Authority approvals. Aim: The UK MoD requires a secure Ground Segment software solution for tasking, monitoring and controlling a space-based ISR constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites(s), which will form an integral component of the UK MoD ground segment architecture, acting as the primary mission control system for the Customer Satellite Operations Centre. The UK MoD is therefore seeking a provider to develop a technology roadmap, secure software development plan and assist (through demonstration & prototype development) with the maturation of system requirements and the development of a software architecture that will deliver an assured Mission Control System for space-based ISR command & control (C2) which is scalable to meet future operational needs, and enable interoperability with UK MoD owned space assets. The project, named BEROE, during the competition and development phases (refer to tender process stage 1-4), will focus on maturing, deriving and identifying UK MoD requirements, testing hypotheses, addressing key challenges and stimulating industry to develop product roadmaps to support future operational systems targeted for non-civilian use. Bidders will be requested to describe their ground segment software solution in terms of overall design, architecture and interfaces that enable the integration of protocols, operating procedures, development of user interfaces and compatibility with open standards. To establish a Bidders list for ITT, it is the Authority’s intention, through this DPQQ and Contract Notice, to source interest from and screen the capability of the industrial supply base. Participation at Invitation to Tender (ITT) will be subject to successfully passing a Dynamic Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (DPQQ). The procurement process will be split across four (4) stages, which are defined below: Stage 1: Will be the DPQQ stage, which is designed to evaluate Commercial, Technical and Financial. Bidders who are successfully down selected at the DPQQ stage will proceed to the second stage. \nStage 2: Will comprise of an Invitation to Tender Lite (ITT-Lite). Bidders will be required to pass both commercial and technical mandatory criteria at this stage. \nStage 3: Will involve the Authority inviting Bidders to demonstrate how they would achieve the mandatory technical requirement. This will be on a PASS/FAIL basis. If Bidders pass stage 2 and stage 3 they will be invited to stage 4 having deemed to have met the minimum entry criteria (MEC) for Lot 1. All other suppliers will remain active and be eligible to receive any future ITT Lite should the Authority re-open the lot. \nStage 4:  Will consist of Framework Contract Award(s) under Lot 1 to zero, one or more suppliers (subject to the minimum requirements) at ITT (IITT-lite & Demonstration) and satisfying the MEC)). The first task will involve the Authority tasking the Bidders to present their solution further detailed within the Framework Tasking Form which will be issued to all Suppliers on Lot 1. The intent is to take through a selection of two Suppliers for each subsequent task. The Contract(s) awarded at Stage four (4) will be  funded up to the end of this FY (22/23), further tasks may be included for further development post FY 22/23 (subject to Authority approvals)."

The Authority intends to proceed to the stage 3 (Demonstration) with up to six (6) Bidders, however, reserves the right to add more based on the quality of the returned proposals.\nThe Authority intends to proceed through to Stage 4 (Framework Contract Award) with 2 suppliers, however, reserves the right to add more or reduce the number of suppliers based on the quality of the overall assessments from Stage 3. \nThe award criteria will be weighted against Price, Technical and Social Value (20% price, 70% Technical, and 10% Social Value), to conclude ‘the most economically advantageous tender’ in terms of the criteria stated in the specifications. Specific criteria and weightings will be provided within the ITT. Scores from stage 2 will be combined with scores at stage to reach an overall score.\nContract Duration: The intended Framework length is thirty-six (36) months, the initial Lot (1) will be open until the end of FY 22/23 with the intent to re-open Lot 1 at the Authority’s discretion.
