Publication of ITT for AWE Urban Series: Integrate on DSP

Tender description

The Army Warfighting Experiment Urban Series 2022-2024 is a Capability Investigation within a threat based tactical scenario. It will employ live, virtual and constructive methods to produce evidence which; de-risks major equipment programmes; enhances relationships with Industry, partners and allies; and accelerates Army modernisation and transformation. The ITT for AWE Urban Series: Integrate has now been published on Defence Sourcing Portal (DSP) Lot 1: AWE Urban Series - Background The Army Warfighting Experiment Urban Series 2022-2024 is a Capability Investigation within a threat based tactical scenario. It will employ live, virtual, and constructive methods to produce evidence which: de-risks major equipment programmes; enhances relationships with industry, partners, and allies; and accelerates Army modernisation and transformation. The Requirement AWE Blunt and Dislocate will focus on the following hypotheses, which will be further refined in due course into detailed experimental activity. Applications must link to one of the following hypotheses: • Manoeuvre. If Urban Force Element Commanders have 4D (time and space) decision support and visualisation tools (including physical and human terrains), as well as systems to access the 3D spaces, then they will have better situational awareness and manoeuvrability, and generate higher quality command decisions to increase operational advantage. • Fires. If Urban Force Elements have the ability to deliver accurate multi-domain, physical and non-physical (electromagnetic spectrum and cyber), battlespace-deconflicted Fires beyond visual line-of-sight, then they will be more efficient at prosecuting targets, and effecting the human terrain to increase operational tempo and mass. • Information Activities. If Urban Information Manoeuvre Force Elements have the ability to map, and spoof, RED and WHITE Forces’ digital (online) and physical (including printed) information influence then they will be capable of directing more effective information manoeuvre to increase operational tempo and mass. Additional information: AWE Urban Series activity may be circulated through a number of communication routes; however the White Paper and Quad Chart are only available via the DSP.
