    Brief

    The British Army is seeking a Strategic Training Partner (STP) to modernise its collective training system. The current training infrastructure has reached the end of its technical and contractual life. The STP will work collaboratively with the Army to deliver a generational transformation in how the Army achieves operational readiness. Key objectives include: developing an integrated, expeditionary, and digitalised training service; enabling global training capability; supporting the transition to warfighting readiness; creating a more lethal and integrated force; and establishing a new partnership model with the defence industry that backs British-based businesses. The opportunity represents a chance to accelerate training innovation and enable the Army to train in challenging, realistic, multi-domain environments using world-leading capabilities. Suppliers should demonstrate expertise in defence training systems, digital transformation, operational readiness programmes, and large-scale service delivery.
