Geospatial Enabling Programme Delivery Partner

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

Geospatial (land) data is a critical asset for Defra as it provides insight into land use to inform policy decisions that can be distributed effectively to maximize economic growth whilst supporting nature recovery.

The Geospatial Enabling Programme can enable delivery of better policy making to deliver our priorities, by resolving issues within the geospatial data landscape and developing the spatial targeting capability. <br/>A lack of accurate geospatial (land) data has meant that historically multiple versions of the same area of land exist across Defra group and there are areas of rural land not currently captured in Defra mapping systems.

This inhibits effective policy development through spatial targeting due to differing views of the geometry and land use.

This also translates into a poor end user experience, where farmers are asked repeatedly to input the same information into different systems belonging to the Defra group. <br/>The purpose of this notice is for DEFRA to make known that a Further Competition is being conducted under the CCS Space-Enabled and Geospatial Services Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) (reference RM6235) for a Delivery Partner to support the Geospatial Enabling Programme. <br/>Suppliers can access this by visiting https://crowncommercialservice.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html and locating ITT reference itt_84717.

Interested suppliers who are not on the DPS who may wish to participate should visit https://www.crowncommercial.gov.uk/agreements/RM6235 for further details.

Suppliers who join the DPS after Thursday 17th July will not be added to itt_84717.

Please note the buyer address at https://defra-family.force.com/s/Welcome which will be required for contract management.
