AN will deliver Underwater Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance (ISR) as a service through a Contractor Owned, Contractor Operated, Naval Oversight (COCONO) model. AN will be data focussed, providing information direct to the Maritime Operational Commander ashore to inform decision making.
Prospective bidders interested in participating in this ITT should contact the AN Commercial Mailbox expressing interest in this opportunity:
NavyDEV-UWBPJCABOT-Commercial@mod.gov.uk.
Further instructions will be provided to organisations upon receipt of expressions of interest including detailed security instructions.
The procurement process will be run through the Defence Sourcing Portal (DSP), therefore interested parties should ensure they are registered on the portal in advance. Please visit the DSP for Supplier guidance and details on how to register at:
