## Description

Introduction and summary of requirements We would like individuals or organisations with commercial and technical knowledge of the quantum technology sector to develop detailed road maps to support the design and delivery of the National Quantum Strategy Missions\. The focus of each road map will vary based on the characteristics of each Mission, as well as current evidence gaps that need addressing to inform policy development\. The breadth and depth of specialist expertise required to deliver the road maps is substantial, spanning technical milestones for quantum entanglement networks to the identification of clinical use cases for quantum sensors\. This opportunity has therefore been broken down into four separate lots to allow individuals or organisations with specific expertise relevant to individual Missions to participate\. Aims and Objectives This project will gather evidence to help DSIT understand the key commercial opportunities, technology requirements and milestones, and dependencies for each Mission\. This evidence will inform ongoing policy development and help shape policy interventions such as technology-specific innovation programmes, infrastructure investments and market creation activity to support overall Mission delivery\. Alongside common evidence requirements for all lots \(technology development timelines and underpinning requirements for priority use cases\), there are specific requirements for each\. These are outlined below: Lot A: Quantum networking \(Mission 2\): technology and research milestones to materialise quantum networks, analysis of competing quantum networking components, underpinning classical infrastructure requirements Lot B: Quantum sensing for healthcare \(Mission 3\): high potential clinical use case identification, mapping of necessary activity through the NHS HealthTech adoption framework Lot C: Quantum position, navigation and timing \(PNT\) \(Mission 4\): market size estimates for core sub-component technologies such as compound semiconductors, MEMS vacuum cells, integrated photonics and advanced packaging\. Lot D: Quantum sensing for critical national infrastructure \(CNI\) \(Mission 5\): Current and future performance of sensing platforms, market size estimates for use cases such as gravity sensing in different sectors Additional information: The ITT can be found on DSIT's e-procurement portal, Jaggaer, under live opportunities\. https://beisgroup\.ukp\.app\.jaggaer\.com/
