Description

NSRS is a tri-national project established in 2003 to deliver a submarine rescue capability to the United Kingdom (UK), France and Norway (collectively known as the Participant Nations).

The scope of the 3ISS requirement includes, but is not limited to: a) Provision of project and programme management to oversee the management and maintain capability and availability of the system (rescue readiness); b) Provision of a complete contractor operated service; c) Continuous maintenance and support of NSRS assets and systems; d) Mobilisation and conducting NSRS training exercises; e) Obsolescence management; and f) Spares management.
