Description

In line with its Aviation Security Strategy, the DfT continues works to improve the standards of aviation security around the world for inbound flights to the UK.

Training is a key pillar of our assistance package, and the DfT requires a framework for the quick and compliant provision of training services overseas. Suppliers will be expected to deliver short, tactical deployments (typically from 1 to 3 weeks in length) in specific areas of aviation security.

Framework

This procurement is for a maximum of 8 Suppliers to be awarded to the ASTEM Framework. The overarching aim of the Framework is to support Government in improving aviation security standards overseas. Suppliers on this Framework will be expected to deliver a variety of aviation security training courses or strategic development events to countries identified by the DfT. Training courses will be based predominantly on the modules and syllabuses of The UK National Aviation Security Programme, but suppliers may also be required to deliver bespoke courses on occasion, tailored to the specific needs of the host state. Training courses and strategic development events should ideally be delivered face to face in the hosts country, but suppliers should be willing and able to facilitate delivering such remotely, for instance by Virtual Tele Conferencing.

Mini-Competitions

The Framework consists of a single lot, which aims to prepare, provide, and deliver a number of aviation security training and regulatory support events.

Suppliers should note that the framework will be a 'call-off' arrangement where requirements (Task Orders) will be dictated by demand. Each requirement will be published with a detailed specification via a 'mini-competition'.
