- Description
- NOI-ACT-SACT-15-13 The Allied Command Transformation Intelligent Customer & technical Support (TACTICS) contract is designed to establish the conditions in which SACT has timely access to the leading-edge capabilities necessary to tackle challenges and problems whose size and complexity defy solutions by solely using existing staff or tools within NATO's established organisation. The TACTICS contract is an integral part of SACT's comprehensive organisational and operating strategy that enables mission accomplishment by integrating high quality deliverables from a trusted industry partner, with the unique and manifold capacities of NATO's established workforce and toolset. In launching the TACTICS Contract, ACT is adopting a "Just in Time" (JIT) approach to obtaining essential technical support from industry. The JIT approach replaces earlier conventional contracting models, some of which saw contractors based permanently on-site at HQ SACT for multi-year periods. Three Work Packages are envisaged, as follows: 1.Integrated Product Delivery. The Integrated Product Delivery (IPD) function will serve as the platform for the delivery of products industrial and commercial capability and best practices to the ACT Client. The contractor will assign an appropriate contract management and reach back structure in order to connect with the Client and deliver the IPD function. In order for the contractor to be agile and responsive to emerging requirements for the development of deliverables, the Contractor's solution for providing IPD shall ensure the Contractor maintains awareness of the Client's business domain thereby enabling the Contractor to be rapidly oriented to new requirements for deliverables, shortening timescales between initial tasking and delivery. 2.Intelligent Customer Ability. In pursuit of the transformational mission, HQ SACT obtains technical services and products from a variety of providers. As a strategic headquarters, HQ SACT is charged with leading NATO's transformational campaign which is characterised by significant long-term investments and critical decision-making with the potential to have an impact over decades; the need for a robust system for quality assurance is clear. The breadth and diversity of SACT's business area are such that HQ SACT will likely benefit from having the ability to access expert advice and perspectives, both complementary and alternative, from a third party. 3.Technical Concepts, Trials & Experimentation. The Contractor shall deliver TCTE products that support the conceptual visualisation, planning, execution and output of ACT's diverse technical programmes and projects. The TCTE products will contribute to programme initiation, testing and experimentation, capture, scrutiny and collation of results needed to deliver a high quality output which will normally be in the form of objective evidence to inform decision-making. Venues for Trials and Experimentation will vary from workshop settings, through laboratory facilities, to full-scale field exercises. HQ SACT will specify the types of products required; products required from the TACTICS contractor may contribute to, but will not wholly deliver, the following programmes: Command & Control Systems (C2) and Processes; C2 Interoperability Verification; Information Exchange Requirements; Ballistic Missile Defence; Space; Counter- Improvised Explosive Device; Land C2; Air C2; Maritime C2; Strategic Communications; Joint Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance; Cyber Defence; Expeditionary Medical Support; Logistics Chain Management; Technical Trials; Experimentation; capability development efforts spanning the Doctrine, Organisation, Training, Material, Leadership & education, Personnel, Facilities & Interoperability spectrum
