Description
The UK MOD (the Authority) and UK Space Agency (UKSA) are working together to develop the National Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) capabilities required to monitor and warn of hazardous space events and contribute to the wider Space Domain Awareness (SDA) picture. Space is becoming increasingly congested and contested, fuelled by a rapid increase in the number (and reducing cost) of objects in orbit. The UK MOD are working to bring together data and analysis from defence, civil and commercial space users to ensure UK satellites can continue to operate safely and sustainably. The UK is enhancing its national SDA capability needed to protect and defend the UK national interest in space. The aim of this procurement is to purchase SDA data sets from a range of both national and international suppliers to enable assessment of the utility of the SDA data available on the commercial market. The UK MOD, via the DE&S Space Delivery Team, intends to procure SDA data from reliable data suppliers, with extensive knowledge of SDA, and assess how supplementary sensor data can be combined with current data sources to improve UK capability. The requirement is for participation in Tendering for the Framework for the Provision of Space Domain Awareness (SDA) Sensor Data. The Framework will be open for a period of approximately two (2) months, ending no later than 31st Mar 23 (data delivery by 1st Mar 23). The Framework is for the purchase of Commercial SDA data, which is required to support real-time information, including satellite tracking and anomaly detection/alerting. Delivery of the data products for ingestion (via Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)). The requirement scope has been divided into 6 LOTS for specific activities, for which Providers can bid for single, multiple or all lots, defined below (full definitions contained within Section D of the Invitation to Tender (ITT): LOT 1 Characterisation (GEO) LOT 2 Tracking (GEO) LOT 3 Characterisation (LEO) LOT 4 Characterisation (Other) LOT 5 Tracking (Other) LOT 6 Tracking (LEO) The requirement is for research and development purposes, therefore the Authority intends to purchase as many data types within each LOT as possible, within the approved budget. Bidders are encouraged to consider the variety of data provided in each data set, over the quantity of data provided. Firm Prices and a maximum bid limit of £45,000 (ex VAT) for initial tasking has been set to ensure multiple data sets can be purchased across LOTs, bids submitted above this value may not be accepted. Should the Authority reach the maximum approved budget, no further data will be purchased. The Authority will purchase up to a maximum of £200,000 (ex VAT) data sets per LOT, the amount of data purchased is solely driven by affordability. The Authority reserves the right not to purchase from any of the LOTS.
