Intended MOD procurement for the supply of SCIDA services for the RAF estate. It is currently envisaged that this procurement will be run using CCS RM6264 FM DPS to procure SCIDA services. We would like to extend the opportunity to all potential suppliers to have access to the competition. Use of a DPS allows suppliers to onboard at any time, and they only have to select the individual services they are capable of delivering. If this would be of interest, please read the attached guidance doc and follow the instructions to onboard. Onboarding is completely free. CCS have also produced a video guide albeit for a different DPS, but the onboarding process is the same. From around 4 mins into this YouTube video, the information is fairly generic that may help. If you have any questions, please reach out to [email protected].
