Electronic Warfare Countermeasures Increment 1a

This PIN is for the Electronic Warfare Countermeasures (EWCM) project, which forms part of the MEWP Programme. DE&S have a requirement for a Trainable Launcher capable of deploying future and legacy rounds. The purpose of this PIN is to notify potential suppliers of the Authority’s intention to release a DPQQ for the requirement. This DPQQ will be accompanied by a formal Contract Notice. This DPQQ and Contract Notice will be released through the Defence Sourcing Portal (DSP). Suppliers interested in taking part on the DQPP will need to register for a DSP account if they do not already have one. Guidance for suppliers in completing the DPQQ will be available for download from the DSP, indicating grounds for mandatory exclusion, grounds for discretionary exclusion, and the relative weighting of the technical questions. The indicative release date of the DPQQ is April 2022. This PIN is not a means to seek formal expressions of interest. The Authority reserves the right not to issue a DPQQ and Contract Notice, and not to proceed to ITN following a DPQQ process.
