## About this tender

This Request for Information (RFI) is hereby being issued in relation to an upcoming Requirement. The aim is to seek information about where the market stands to better refine our requirement.

Contract Duration: 6 Months

### BACKGROUND

The requirement will be issued by Multi Domain Integration Change Programme (MDICP) Ministry of Defence.

Joint Concept Note 1/20 (JCN 1/20) sets out four key tenets of Multidomain Integration as the means to protect the United Kingdom and her interests: Information Advantage, Strategic Posture, configured for the Environments, Creating and Exploiting Synergy. One of the critical enablers to achieving this ambition is faster and better operational decision-making in multi-domain and integrated contexts.

Strategic Command is responsible for integration of military capability and effects within the Ministry of Defence (MOD). The Multi-Domain Integration Change Programme (MDICP) is responsible for delivering integration through People, Technology, Data and Authorities, creating the strategic and operational advantage envisaged by the Integrated Operating Concept 2025 (IOpC25).

### REQUIREMENT OVERVIEW

The MDICP has experienced considerable success, gaining traction across both Defence and with partners across government. When the programme was initially launched Joint Concept Note 20/1 (JCN 20/1) on MDI had not been published, the IOpC25 had only been published internally the Integrated Review (IR) process had not been completed. Today integration is in the policy and conceptual mainstream, significantly augmented by the ambition of the Integrated Review and the Defence Command Paper. However, the interest and the ambition of the MDICP is steadily increasing, allied to this, the first 12 months of the programme have shed light on the complexity of delivering something that it genuinely new across Defence.

Additional information:

The MDICP will build upon the 4 key tenets of MDI described within the Joint Concept Note 1/20 to enable a programme design that will be sufficiently resilient to an evolving concept, informed by an ambitious experimentation agenda.

Against this wider policy context, we require a team of Suitably Qualified Experienced Personnel (SQEP) to deliver and validate a cognitive training package focussed on developing decision advantage within the Land, Air, Sea, Cyber, and Space domains that will

- teach better decision-making in Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) multidomain environments.
- enhance decision-making in multidomain environments without relying on the repetition characterising the military decision-making model and annual exercise cycle (predictable and forecast scenarios);
- enhance metacognition of decision-making and awareness of decision-making ability amongst our personnel relative to an international database of security professionals; and
- achieve better understanding of decision-making as a core military skill essential to achieving decision advantage in multidomain environments and decisive advantage in response to operational complexity.

This should be achieved through a bespoke education and training package that balances theory and practise, uses an evidence-based and well-validated approach to decision-making and performance amongst emergency responders and security forces and includes immersive scenarios for each domain (Air, Land, Sea, Cyber and Space) using a methodology that can be delivered at scale once proof of concept has been achieved.

Experience and demonstrable success working with military personnel, emergency responders and security professionals is essential. There is an expectation that the supplier will have experience in teaching and delivering enhanced decision-making in both an international and domestic context.

### AUTHORITY QUESTIONS TO SUPPLIERS

Please answer the following two questions in 2,000 words or less:

- Against a wider policy context, describe an approach to delivering a cognitive training package focussed on developing decision advantage within the Land, Air, Sea, Cyber, and Space domains.
- Describe your experience of where you have worked with military personnel and/or emergency responders and/or security professionals to provide education and training in enhanced decision-making in an international and/or domestic context.

Please respond to this RFI by contacting 

Your response is required by 24th November 2022 and will be treated with confidentiality. Answers will not be shared with any of the other supplier.

Please note, this is market scoping only, not a competition.

This RFI DOES NOT commit the Authority to initiate the official procurement process.
