Total Quantity or Scope

The Authority is seeking to notify the market of a potential procurement for a Defence Simulation Enablers (DSEn) Programme, which will provide Defence wide access to common Modelling & Simulation (M&S) resources, across all its applications, through a Defence Simulation Centre (DSC) to support coherence and enable reuse, interoperability and Value for Money across the Defence Enterprise. A key element of the DSEn Programme will be a Synthetic Environment Service (SES). The SES generates, manages, maintains, stores and provides Synthetic Environment data and 3D models optimised for M&S usage enabling sharing and reuse, with an ability for the service to evolve to cover other types of data specifically for M&S. The system must be able to import and export data in a number of formats as listed in Def-Stan 03-50. Resources to include (but not limited to): data, models, terrains, subject matter experts (SMEs), standards, processes, services, software, and reference material. Please note that an Industry Day is expected to be held in September 2022 and followed by a Request for Information (RFI) associated with the potential SES procurement on Defence Sourcing Portal. The Authority encourages industry input to the RFI allowing the development of a robust requirement. Additional information: A Market Interest Day will be held at Tech UK head office in London early September 2022. On the day there will be a chance to discuss the requirement further and answer any questions Industry may have. To express your interest to the Market Interest Day please email alex.postlethwaite102@mod.gov.uk by 02/09/2022
