## About this tender

The MOD complies with Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) regulatory requirements that are enshrined in UK Legislation. Working with Industry, it is also improving the ability to appropriately report on Assets Subject to Special Control (ASSC) which includes, but not limited to, the US International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), the UK-US Defence Trade Cooperation Treaty (DTCT) and the US Export Administration Regulations (EAR), other Foreign Military Sales (FMS) agreements or Memorandums of Understanding (MoU) for the import, re-export and re-transfer of Export Controlled equipment.

EU Transition and the likely changes to the reporting requirement of ASSC (for example US Export Control Reforms) will require changes to MOD Policy, Process and Procedures (across Defence Commercial, Finance, Logistics and Technical Authorities) and the underpinning IS in order to maintain compliance and, where possible, improve the efficiency of that compliance. WATERGUARD requires technical support to develop and deliver these changes.

This will include the production Equipment Breakdown Structures to identify controlled items, the business take on and development of the ASSC Service and the development and delivery of change to IS to increase automation and improve the efficiency of compliance throughout.

This contract will be for one year with two, one year options.
