DDAI/010 Digital Decision Accelerators for Defence (DDAD) Open Framework

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is intending to launch a procurement for a new Defence and Security Open Framework specially designed to encourage the development, and accelerants of, advanced digital 'Decision' capabilities. An Open Framework is defined as a scheme of successive frameworks that allows for the periodic reopening of supplier lists under substantially the same terms. This contrasts with traditional ‘closed’ frameworks where after a single competition process suppliers are ‘locked’ in or out of a framework for its full duration. This Open Framework will operate as the main delivery mechanism for ASGARD; the British Army's flagship Transformative Capability Initiative (TCI). This project will deliver a central part of the Chief of General Staff's (CGS) Growth Through Transformation (GTT) strategy. This Open Framework will focus on the 'Decide' element of the target acquisition cycle (Sense-Decide-Effect); supporting ASGARD’s goal of reinventing, and transforming, how land forces deliver operational decision-support and decision-making software via the use of modern Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) technologies. More information, including the final scope of this framework, will become available in the future publishing of the Tender Notice and associated Tender Documents (anticipated in Q3 of 2025). Over four (4) core years (with options to extend), the estimated value of this framework is estimated to be £180,000,000.00. This figure is purely indicative and is not a comittment to spend, and is subject to amendment prior to the publishing of the Tender Notice and associated Tender Documentation. The MOD has duly considered the use of lots in this framework and has provided the details of proposed lots below. These lots, and the procurement process, will be suitable for Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to bid for. Suppliers will be able to bid against multiple lots and, if successful, be awarded onto multiple. Please be aware that the MOD will not be providing additional time for Suppliers bidding onto multiple lots during the tender process. Supplier Feedback on Lots: Suppliers are invited to provide voluntary feedback on the lot names, number of places, and descriptions for the MODs consideration. If a Supplier is interested in providing feedback, they must do so by the 13th June 2025, at 17:00. Feedback must be limited to the lots and must be submitted via the MS Form provided, in Section 2 and Section 3 (LINK HAS NOW EXPIRED). Please note that the MOD reserves the right to consider feedback and to alter, amend, or remove lots entirely on that basis. The final lots will be made clear in the Tender Notice and associated Tender Documents. Supplier Invitation to Bidders Conference: The MOD is planning to hold a virtual Bidders Conference for prospective Suppliers to attend (no commitment to bid required to attend). A date has not yet been confirmed for this event; however, the MOD will endeavour to provide as much notice as possible and in any event more than two (2) weeks. To promote principles of equal treatment and transparency, this session will be recorded and can made available to Suppliers who request it or are unable to attend. The Bidders Conference will include a brief introduction from the Project Team and a run through of the process from the Commercial Team. The intention of this session is three-fold, namely: (1) to explain how Suppliers, especially Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs), can get involved in this opportunity, (2) to promote a common understanding of the program’s goals, and (3) to set the behaviours that MOD and Suppliers can expect from each other. While a date is not confirmed for the Bidders Conference, should your organisation wish to attend please complete the MS Form, Section 1, so that the MOD may contact you once a date is confirmed (UPDATED LINK FOR NEW SUPPLIERS 16/06/2025: https://forms.office.com/e/0i7aVDDiwC).

Scoping Study: Climate transition and global financial stability

In partnership with the industry-led EMDE Investor Taskforce convened by the Minister for International Development and the Economic Secretary to the Treasury, DESNZ on behalf of the UK government is commissioning a scoping study to consider the risks raised in 'The UK as a Climate Finance Hub’ report [1] and determine whether additional research is needed. The scoping study will include a literature review that addresses the points raised in the report, specifically and including (i) the risk that climate change poses to UK and global financial stability and how current approaches manage that risk; (ii) the potential impact of a delayed or failed transition in EMDE on portfolios held by investors based in developed markets, including the UK, taking into account a globally connected financial system, supply chains and trade dependencies, and the location of many systemically important natural assets and transition commodities; and (iii) the scale of the opportunity for private sector financial institutions to invest in the climate transition in EMDEs, and their appetite for doing so. The scoping study will be funded by DESNZ and delivered by an external delivery partner. The maximum contract budget for this work is £80,000 excluding VAT. The scoping study will be delivered within 12 weeks through two discrete elements: - Literature review, supported by engagement with relevant international financial architecture[2] (IFA) actors - Recommendations on whether further targeted research is desirable, the form and focus this would take if so, and future stakeholder engagement and delivery The delivery partner will be responsible for identifying, contracting, and managing any subcontractors and subject matter experts required to deliver its required outputs and outcomes as specified in this scope of works.
