Early Engagement - DfT National Capability Testing Centre

Deadline extension to the below Early Engagement Notice.

The National Capability Testing Centre is a key part of the Department for Transport's (DfT) testing capabilities and provides a central location for the handling, manufacture and disposal of explosives against national and international standards, such as, but not limited to, European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) as well as the storing of firearms and knives.

DfT need a new site and we are currently assessing the market capabilities on offer, before defining our detailed requirements. Participation will not guarantee being a part of any future procurement. If any future procurement is restricted to certain suppliers, a suitable set of criteria will be applied to select participants.

Suppliers are invited to complete and return the attached Questionnaire by 5pm, Friday 20th September. Further response guidance can be found within the attachment.

We welcome all feedback. All responses will be treated as Commercially Sensitive.
