CCS has scheduled open supplier webinar events relating to a new commercial agreement being developed to cover Space-Enabled and Geospatial services, technologies and solutions. The agreement will provide access to data, services, technology and solutions that utilise remote geospatial, locational, communication and sensing capabilities of space, aerial and land-based platforms, to maximise public sector services.
This will be an opportunity for suppliers who have knowledge, experience or current offerings within the broad scope of this agreement to understand the anticipated timelines and processes for joining the agreement, as well as a chance to offer suggestions or raise new ideas about the agreement's structure and service definitions. In particular, CCS is interested in the attendance of suppliers of Drone and UAV based services.
The first event is on 17 March, with two further webinars later in March - these will be an opportunity to hear from the project team about the aims, opportunities and progress so far in developing this brand new agreement for use by the public sector.
Below you will find further listing of upcoming events, which will be an opportunity to hear from the project team about the aims, opportunities and progress so far in developing this brand new agreement for use by the public sector.
For more information - please get in touch with Sophie James, Programme Manager, Communications Infrastructure and Services.
