This in-service support is currently achieved via a sole source contract with the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) including a contractual arrangement for the management of the Shore Reference Sets (SRS) associated with the ICS. ICS provides a digital and analogue voice message exchange architecture that supports voice communications over digital and wireless networks and analogue circuits. The system also includes a telephone exchange, secondary, emergency damage control (DC) communication systems, submarine broadcast and general alarm functions. A-Class ICS employs a wholly, complex, 3-node communication architecture that employs digital switch and network technologies within a multi-layer software model. It supports essential communications between the submarine crew for operational and safety critical functions on-board. The existing system in place is based on Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) and will need to move to the modern Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) technology to allow long term support. ICS is a complex system with many interfaces and nodes to allow personnel the opportunity to communicate throughout the platform. This complexity is not always understood by Ship Staff so it is essential to have engineering backup available via Suitably Qualified and Experienced Personnel (SQEP) ICS engineers provisioned for via a support contract. Astute ICS is a Priority 1 Master Equipment (ME) and is vital to delivering platform capability. The software will need to be a SIL2 (Safety Integrity Level) system and integral to the whole boat safety case.

In April 2015 the MOD signed a thirteen year contract with Leidos Europe Ltd to provide the procurement and inventory management of commodity items (as well as the storage and distribution services) historically provided in-house by the Logistic Commodities and Services Operating Centre. Leidos, working with the MOD, will transform the way these services are delivered to ensure requirements continue to be met whilst providing best value for money for the department. The organisation delivering these services is known as Team Leidos. The Requirement is to procure DEXIS IXS sensors which have already been ‘whitelisted’ for use within existing MOD IT infrastructure. Estimated quantities: 687 units The DEXIS IXS sensor has been MOD directed due to compatibility with existing MOD IT systems. Introducing alternatives would require extensive IT re integration resulting in significant additional cost, delay, and delivery risk. LSL is therefore proceeding via a Direct Award in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. Under Condition 41, Schedule 5 (Direct Award Justifications), “Changing supplier would create disproportionate technical difficulties, incompatibility risks and Significant delay. “These conditions would apply if an alternative to the DEXIS sensor were introduced. For clarity, the reference to “changing supplier” within the Procurement Act 2023 relates to a change in the OEM, in line with the requirement. Competition will continue to be maintained at the distributor level, with procurement conducted among approved distributors in the market.

Suppliers are invited to submit all responses for the proposed tender via the Jaggaer platform.

GWR is undertaking a major procurement to appoint a strategic partner capable of delivering an integrated customer data, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and loyalty ecosystem. The goal is to create a unified, scalable, and insight driven environment that strengthens customer relationships, improves operational efficiency, and drives measurable commercial value. Central to this ambition is a CRM and loyalty programme that actively increases customer engagement, repeat travel, and revenue through personalised, relevant, and timely interactions. The partner will deliver a Single Customer View (SCV) data platform, digital analytics services, CRM programme management, and loyalty operations, which will deliver customer insight flows seamlessly from data ingestion through to personalised activation and revenue generating outcomes. This will include not only the build and delivery of these capabilities, but the ongoing optimisation of CRM and loyalty programmes. This will ensure that our journeys, communications and member experiences are continually refined. This will support our goals of customer engagement, influence of their behaviours and support wider commercial, business and customer UX objectives. This procurement reflects GWR's ambition to become more data informed and customer centric, recognising that a unified understanding of customers is a core business capability, not simply a technology platform. The partner will be expected to support an always‑on programme of strategic CRM and loyalty activity that evolves over time, driving sustained customer value and long‑term business growth. This procurement also needs to recognise the wider rail industry context, including GWR's future transition into the Department for Transport Operator model and, in time, Great British Railways. The appointed partner will therefore need to provide a flexible, scalable service that can adapt as industry structures, governance requirements and customer priorities evolve

The purpose of this preliminary market engagement is to: • provide background and context to the proposed procurement; • test the proposed scope and potential delivery model options; • better understand market capability, capacity and key risks; • understand potential mobilisation timetable from potential suppliers to ensure the estimated procurement timetable is realistic and to minimise transition risk; • obtain supplier insight on operating models, service integration, mobilisation, resilience, transport planning solutions including dynamic planning, data visibility, governance, commercial arrangements and performance management; and • inform NHSBT’s future commercial strategy and procurement approach. Areas which may be in scope for discussion as part of this engagement include: • scheduled and ad hoc transport; • courier and urgent response services; • specialist clinical logistics; • national and/or regional courier logistics; • control tower, visibility and booking systems; • contingency for “shock” events; • mobilisation, continuity and service resilience; and • 3rd party storage and warehousing to support inhouse provision.
