Given the prominence of the severe space weather as a 'significant' risk on the UK Government's NSRA and the higher than anticipated activity in this solar cycle, crossgovernment activity has increased putting greater demands and requirements on Met Office. Increased funding has been secured to resource these more demanding requirements focussed on improving UK preparedness for any future severe space weather event. Met Office Technology team is looking to supplement its internal resources to support and advise the Space Weather programme from the technical perspective. The resources to be provided by the Delivery Partner will work in a blended team and will be supported by Met Office internal technical, product and delivery management leadership. The Met Office require resources to develop, support, maintain and improve our Space Weather portfolio and associated technologies. We're looking for skills that align to the GDaD Profession Capability Framework. The successful supplier will be expected to supply a suitable development team with the capacity to take immediate ownership of the support and delivery of the Met Office Space Weather portfolio. Note that a period of dual contract running is planned in order to ensure an effective handover of assets and domain knowledge. The contract will be a non exclusive contract delivered via Statements of Work on time and materials, capped time and materials and a hybrid pricing model using capped time and materials and fixed cost elements for appropriate SoW's. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 72000000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £15,000,000 - **Contract Period:** 05/01/2026 to 04/01/2031 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 1 (active) - Supplier(s): **CACI LIMITED** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-182379` - Value: £15,000,000 (exc.
