Potential Providers are to note that in order to fulfil this requirement, the chosen supplier will be exposed to and required to safeguard national sensitive information/data bearing a security classification up to and including SECRET UK EYES ONLY.

Potential Providers who do not meet this minimum eligibility criteria will be sifted out during DPQQ evaluation stage.
The use of the Contracting, Purchasing & Finance (CP&F) system is a mandatory requirement for this Contract, the Authority must be assured that you have the technical ability to trade electronically and connect to the CP&F system.

Potential Providers are to confirm that they can deliver a Safety and Environmental Case Report in accordance with DMR02, DEF Stan 00-055 and DEF Stan 00-056. This forms part of the minimum eligibility criteria and any Potential Provider who cannot confirm compliance with this will be sifted out during DPQQ evaluation stage.
The Authority requires Potential Providers to comply with the Mandatory Selection Criterion for the Government's Cyber Essentials Scheme. Failure to comply will lead to Potential Providers being sifted out at DPQQ evaluation stage.
