    Brief

    The UK Government is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to update its Capability Map for Space Domain Awareness (SDA) requirements. This is not a procurement activity and does not result in contracts. We are asking commercial suppliers to complete a standardized spreadsheet detailing the systems, sensors, products and data solutions they currently offer that could address UK Cross-Government SDA requirements. This information will help the UK Government understand how commercial offerings could fill capability gaps and inform potential contributions to a UK SDA Systems of Systems. The RFI will be repeated annually to keep the Capability Map current and track sector health. All responses will be treated as confidential (UK OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE COMMERCIAL) and shared only with UK Government departments and agencies. Respondents should submit completed spreadsheets to ssa@dstl.gov.uk, noting any data handling requirements. Multiple submissions are welcome if you offer multiple systems. This is a continuation of the previous RFI cycle.
