Description
Following the successful delivery of the Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO) regulatory sandbox, the Government intends to invest up to £7 million in further regulatory sandboxes and innovative regulatory tools, focusing on high-growth areas and complex mission types. As part of this programme, we are intending to develop two sandboxes focused on regulatory activity within financial year 26/27. Lot 1 will focus on re-entry and lot 2 will focus on multi-mission licensing. For those who are aware of the previously published notice, this is now a multi-lot tender with a total value of £1,000,000 inclusive of VAT across both lots. UKSA intends to offer lot 1 as the re-entry sandbox and lot 2 as the multi-mission licencing. Suppliers will be permitted to bid for both, but will be expected to demonstrate in their technical responses that they have capacity to fulfil both lots in the event they are successful. For the avoidance of doubt, suppliers can choose to bid for individual lots. The anticipated publication of the tender notice remains in July. Each lot will have a maximum contract value of £500,000 inclusive of VAT.
