    "description": "Geospatial (land) data is a critical asset for Defra as it provides insight into land use to inform policy decisions that can be distributed effectively to maximize economic growth whilst supporting nature recovery. The Geospatial Enabling Programme can enable delivery of better policy making to deliver our priorities, by resolving issues within the geospatial data landscape and developing the spatial targeting capability. \u003cbr/\u003eA lack of accurate geospatial (land) data has meant that historically multiple versions of the same area of land exist across Defra group and there are areas of rural land not currently captured in Defra mapping systems. This inhibits effective policy development through spatial targeting due to differing views of the geometry and land use. This also translates into a poor end user experience, where farmers are asked repeatedly to input the same information into different systems belonging to the Defra group.   \u003cbr/\u003eThe purpose of this notice is for DEFRA to make known that a Further Competition is being conducted under the CCS Space-Enabled and Geospatial Services Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) (reference RM6235) for a Delivery Partner to support the Geospatial Enabling Programme. \u003cbr/\u003eSuppliers can access this by visiting https://crowncommercialservice.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html and locating ITT reference itt_84717.

The contract value is an estimate only for resourcing costs and does not include costs for technology or digitising of data. The contract value estimate will be dependent upon whether an extension (in part or in whole) is enacted, whether any optional services (in part or in whole) are enacted, the extent of any contract changes, and the indices used to index prices. In addition, the maximum allowable day rate for this contract is \u00a32,000 (excluding VAT).",
