    Brief

    The UK Ministry of Defence is seeking market input on a deployable capability to securely handle and share classified information for maritime operations at sea and with shore-based teams. Current systems have limited capacity. The Authority is interested in solutions that are: easily transported via standard freight methods (air, land, sea); provided with ongoing maintenance, training and support; capable of being deployed as modular or containerised workspaces; integrated with secure IT and communications systems; and designed with security built in from the start. Suppliers can offer complete solutions or components, and collaborative partnerships between suppliers are encouraged. This is a preliminary market engagement stage where interested suppliers will receive a detailed Request for Information (OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE), participate in a clarification period, and attend an industry day. The Authority will use supplier feedback to refine requirements, commercial approach and delivery plans before launching a formal competition. This engagement is voluntary and at no cost to suppliers; responses will not be scored. Any future competition will be conducted separately and will be open to all eligible suppliers. The Authority is considering a competitive flexible procedure under the Procurement Act 2023 and may include a paid development phase.
