The Defence Technology Exploitation Programme (DTEP) is an initiative designed to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the UK to develop innovative materials, technologies and processes, and to enhance Defence supply chains. MOD requires a provider to coordinate DTEP industry project review panels. These UK wide industry project review panels will provide SMEs with proposal development guidance, detailed feedback to the applicants to enable them to refine and strengthen their applications prior to submission, as well as potential routes to market for commercialising these collaborative projects. The Supplier shall be responsible for the management and implementation of these industry project review panels. The panels will provide industry input/perspectives to the MOD Assessor Panel who will select projects to be supported by DTEP. The Supplier will be required to develop and maintain a pool of industry panel members. The panels should be comprised of experts from industry, who should be volunteers from relevant UK organisations and will give their time to support the Programme. Panel members are expected to be senior employees of MOD's Prime or Tier 1 defence suppliers, able to speak with authority to the MOD Enduring Capability Challenges and DTEP Technical Areas. The Supplier will be required to schedule and arrange Project Review Panel(s) (PRP), there will be two types of PRPs that will occur at the 'Review' and 'Pitch' stages of the DTEP Delivery Process. The 'Review' PRP will review and provide early feedback on the DTEP Outline Project Proposals. The 'Review' PRP will be delivered virtually. The 'Pitch' PRP will provide applicants with the opportunity to present their project proposal to the industry panel (in a 'dragon's den style' pitch) and receive further feedback. The 'Pitch' PRP will be delivered face to face, offered at a range of locations across the UK, although a hybrid option should be made available as required. The Supplier will be required to attend relevant DTEP Programme Board meetings. The Supplier shall promote DTEP to appropriate SMEs to support in identifying potential applicants and projects. Proposed promotional activities to eligible suppliers will be assessed as part of tender response.
