Description

The final date and time for the submission of bids is Friday 29th January 2021 at 11:00 DO NOT apply directly to the buyer. All tender information MUST be submitted through the Delta eSourcing Portal. Brief Description of Requirement This requirement is to derive the first level system of system requirements from the PNT user requirements developed as part of the Cabinet Office PNT strategy development, led through the UK Space Agency. The nascent UK PNT Strategy identifies that to achieve a level of resilience for PNT services in the UK, and meet the needs of duality, diversity and redundancy, a system of systems approach needs to be taken to ensure that multiple technologies are able to work under a consistent framework, making up parts of a whole. Derivation of system of system requirements (Key system requirements and detailed system requirements) is necessary to enable delivery programmes to apply individual service definition filters for their needs. Delivery of the requirements is needed before the end of March 2021 Please ensure you review all attached information to ensure a full understanding of this requirement. All attachments can be found with the Document Uploads tab within the Delta eSourcing Portal. This contract will be awarded based on the evaluation criteria set out in the ITQ document.
