## Description

The Defence Infrastructure Organisation \(DIO\) is MOD's expert adviser and enabler on infrastructure matters\. It is tasked with equipping Defence with a significantly smaller more efficient and better-quality estate\. The objective is to provide a sale facility for DIO to dispose of surplus MOD assets by way of e-auction\. The aim is to deliver disposals and secure receipts from the sale of minor sites to contribute towards the reduction in the MOD estate under the "Better Defence Estates Strategy" \(BDES\) objectives\. The e-auction facility must satisfy best price considerations to provide the MoD with a suitable vehicle/solution to dispose of minor assets in a timely manner\. The MoD is seeking to reduce the footprint of its estate by 30% by 2020\. It uses a variety of sales methods all driven by the principle of providing best value for money in compliance with Treasury guidelines\. There is a long list of disposals which vary in size and value across the portfolio\. MOD is looking to establish a route to market that offers a continuous mechanism, quick turnaround and flexibility but also maximises receipts through fair and open competition\. This will be run using a CCS Framework and is open to Lot 1 registered suppliers on Framework RM3816\.\.
