## About this tender

A photogrammetry drone is to be purchased for visual terrain mapping. It must weigh 7kg or less and produce an accuracy of 2cm. It must also be able to provide a pre-programmed flight pattern providing coverage of the area of interest, requiring minimal training for the operator. Annual maintenance and a guarantee of servicability will also be required for a duration of five years in total. The data output for the system must be compatible with AutoCAD and/or Leica Geographic Office.

Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement, and the contract will be awarded on the basis of the most economically advantageous tender.

### Electronic Trading

Potential suppliers must note the mandatory requirement for electronic trading using the Ministry of Defence's standard Purchase to Payment (P2P) system operating under the Defence Electronic Commerce Service, which shall be a special condition for the performance of this Contract. You can find details on the P2P system at [d2btrade.com](https://www.d2btrade.com). The contractor shall be required to sign DEFFORM30 (Electronic Transaction Agreements) and unconditionally accept DEFCON 5J (Unique Identifiers), DEFCON 129J (The Use of Electronic Business Delivery Form); and DEFCON 522J (Payment under P2P).

Suppliers should be aware that the Authority is in the process of obtaining a licence to fly the UAV and delays in this process have the potential to postpone the distribution of Invitation To Tender (ITT) documents. We expect a response from the MoD regulator (the Military Aviation Authority) in approximately 6 weeks from the date of this advert. To manage this risk we will not be issuing ITTs until we have sucessfully resolved the regulatory issues.
