Given the inevitability of change in the water sector, the needs of Defence are best served at this moment in time by going to the market seeking provision for a replacement service, likely to be in the form of Managed Service Provision (MSP) contract. The Defence Water Services Programme is looking to engage with the potential service providers and assess market interest in the selected delivery model for the service provision. DIO will be carrying out Industry Engagement from February 2025 and seek to invite interested parties to participate in a variety of sessions such as Programme Updates, Industry Days and Bilateral discussions (a commercial in confidence meeting between two parties i.e. DIO and the requesting party). We expect this engagement to begin with an Industry Day on 13th February 2025 at Tidworth Garrison Theatre, SP9 7EP. Description of the procurement DIO is issuing this Notice in order to invite potential service providers to engage with DIO. Organisations who wish to attend the Industry Day on 13th February 2025 are to register their interest by 24th January 2025 via the Defence Water Services Programme Industry Day Registration Form and provide the following details: ### Name of Company/Organisation Point of Contact and contact details.
