ASDOT is a Category 'A' programme and under current planning assumptions may be delivered in incremental phases - Phase one will be introduced from 2020 for 15 years and the estimated value is approximately £750 Million. Phase two could add another £300M-500M over the remaining 8 years.
Description of Procurement
The scope of the ASDOT programme currently covers provision of live flying assets to meet the following training requirements:-
• Air to Air Combat
• Air to Surface Combat
• Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC)/Forward Air Controller (Airborne) (FAC(A))
• Electronic Warfare
• Air Traffic Control (ATC), Ground Based Air Defence (GBAD) and Aerospace Battle Management (ABM)
• Live Gunnery
The ASDOT team is currently working towards an Investment Decision by the end of 2016. Under current plans, a competition for this requirement under the Negotiated Procedure will be launched with the release of a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ). At this time it is envisaged that a single 15 year contract will be let covering the delivery of the requirement through a phased approach. It is important to the Authority that as many interested parties be given the opportunity to understand and consider ASDOT ahead of formal engagement and therefore an Industry Day is planned, at a date to be advised, this will be an opportunity for potential suppliers to learn more about the requirement document.
Some Industry engagement has already taken place during the Concept Phase through the Niteworks Partnership and the Authority now invites companies wishing to learn more about this requirement or offer views on contract duration, phasing and performance measures, technology insertion points and capability enhancements, to contact the Project Team which would be happy to engage.
This PIN is to alert the market to this potential future requirement and is NOT a formal request for Expressions of Interest (EOI). A Contract Notice and Dynamic PQQ may be issued at a date after the Industry Day to request EOIs which shall reference this PIN.
