This requirement is a continuation of the SSS Project presented to industry in an Industry Day held on 28th February 2024 under PIN 408178/1304731. The timeframes of which have been amended to meet the estimated contract dates given below.

The intended activities under the SSS Programme will include:

• Forecasting and Activity Planning

• Category Strategy Development & Management

• Product & Supplier (re)Qualification & Approval

• Supplier Management

• Oversight / Management of parties with the DGM Supply Chain

• Demand Planning, Forecasting and Order Capture

• Purchase to Pay (P2P) and other enabling IT systems & processes

• Governance and New Product Design/Introduction

Selection will be undertaken using a multi-stage procurement under the Competitive Flexible Procedure.

I) Conditions of Participation (CoP) stage; down selection to three suppliers maximum

II) Competitive Dialogue style stage; no down selection

III) An ITT Stage where the Preferred Bidder will be identified.

If you would like to be kept up to date with the SSS project please email DESDGM-OpsGroup@mod.gov.uk with your details and you will be added to our mailing list.
