    Brief

    This is a framework agreement opportunity for the supply of military-grade tactical communication and information systems. The scope includes hardware, software, design services, implementation, and ongoing support for deployment in active battlefield environments requiring critical real-time operational communications. The systems have potential applications across Defence and Security sectors and expand upon existing offerings under Lot 1c of the RM6116 Network Services 3 agreement. The framework operates across three successive periods: Framework 1 (36 months: 26 June 2026 to 25 June 2029), Framework 2 (36 months: 26 June 2029 to 25 June 2032), and Framework 3 (24 months: 26 June 2032 to 25 June 2034), with a total duration of 8 years. This competition awards Framework 1. Successful suppliers will be listed on the Government Contracting Authority (GCA) website, along with information on unsuccessful bidders.
