CONTRACT FOR THE PROVISION OF A PATHOLOGY SPECIMEN REFERRAL SERVICE FOR OVERSEAS BASES AND OPERATIONS

Cyber Security: The MoD has a duty to protect itself from Cyber threats and now we extend this to Suppliers we engage with. As an extension of the Government's Cyber Essentials Scheme the MoD, working together with Industry and other Government Departments, have developed a more robust Cyber Security Model, under the umbrella of the Defence Cyber Protection Partnership (DCPP). All prime contractors must have the cyber security controls specified in DEF Stan 05-138 (Cyber Security for Defence Suppliers), as appropriate to the cyber risk level specified in the contract.

The Authority has determined the level of risk at HIGH - RAR- QAK5PPXX as defined in DEF Stan 05-138. In order to do business with the MOD you must have the cyber security controls required as shown above.

Evaluation Criteria: Weighted Value for Money - Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT), Technical 40%, Commercial 60%

All MOD Procurements are now run through the Defence Sourcing Portal (DSP). All interested suppliers will be required to Register on the DSP to participate in the Tender Exercise.
