Description

This is a Request for Information. Not a tender opportunity. Operators within the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) are subject to Military Aviation Authority (MAA) Regulatory Article (RA) 1208, titled "Flight Data Monitoring" (FDM). This RA commits senior duty holders within Navy Command (NC) and Joint Helicopter Command (JHC) to ensure that a series of FDM Programmes (FDMP) occur on an array of military platforms. NC and JHC are committed to working together in a conjoined manner such that FDMP compliance is achieved using a single flight data processing toolset. This requires the establishment of a capability within NC that includes a suitable flight data analysis toolset for a range of helicopters operated by the UK military. NC has launched a Flight Data Analysis Programme (FDAP), where the primary objective is to identify operating risks through FDM events and measurements (such that the risks are mitigated within platform related FDMPs as part of SMS activity). The FDAP programme is using the generic term Ground-based Data Replay and Analysis System (GDRAS) as a label for the required flight data analysis toolset. GDRAS will be used throughout this document as a descriptor for the required toolset. This RFI is not a bidding opportunity. Subject to the results of this RFI, Navy Command intend to approach the market using a standard tender process for a GDRAS solution to be hosted on a MOD IT environment. It is intended that users will interact with the results of GDRAS activity via the MOD intranet.
