Our focus is to increase business support activity and create a scalable business support programme that will enable Space companies to flourish across the UK, with a particular focus on those embedded within existing or emerging space clusters. To maximise regional economic growth and the stability of local space ecosystems it is therefore imperative that our programme identifies and supports companies throughout the UK. UK SBS is managing this procurement process in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as may be amended from time to time) (the ‘Regulations’).

II.1.4) Short description The UK Space Agency is responsible for all strategic decisions on the UK civil space programme and we provide a clear, single voice for UK space ambitions. The UK Space Agency is at the heart of UK efforts to explore and benefit from space. UKSA is made up of about 250 staff based in Swindon, Westminster and Harwell, Oxfordshire and is an executive agency, sponsored by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). UK Space Agency’s priority is for the UK to capture 10 % of the global market for space by 2030, as set out in the Space Innovation and Growth Strategy and is working to continue to grow the UK space sector which is at the heart of the Industrial Strategy. Uniting and levelling-up the economy is a key Government priority, as also reflected in the draft National Space Strategy and in UK Space Agency’s (UKSA) vision for the UK to lead the new space age, with the benefits of space reaching everyone. The breadth of space sector activities from high value manufacturing to user-centred applications makes space uniquely relevant across the whole of the country. However, space needs to be made more accessible, so companies and individuals recognise that there are relevant opportunities and can capitalise upon them. In 2015 the UK Space Agency’s ambition was to establish a network of support to growing space companies across the country. Subsequently UK Space Agency partnered with a number of existing business incubators to identify and provide support specifically to space start-up companies. Having achieved this, we now want to increase business support activity with a more coordinated approach and create a scalable business support programme that will enable Space companies to flourish across the UK. The UK Space Business Support Programme will be high profile and play a significant role in UKSA’s contribution to Government objectives for the UK to be considered the best place in the world to start or scale a new Space business. As such, we want to engage a world class delivery partner to work with us to develop and deliver a world class business support programme to space companies to achieve economic growth, both regional and national, and to commercialise their products and services sooner and to encourage new space start-ups and entrepreneurs. We will be looking for a delivery partner to design and deliver a core curriculum of business support offerings that are valuable to start-up and/or high-growth potential space businesses throughout the UK. We want to support as many viable space companies through these challenging times as we can. As such, we expect that the training material and advice provided will be relevant to every business no matter where they are situated, and tailored to specific regions where legislation/guidance may differ. We envisage a two-pronged approach — Broadcast and Direct support, with more details on each of these within the RFP documentation. The contract duration will be for a period of approximately four (4) months from December 2020 to April 2021. The budget range for this opportunity is GBP 166 667 to a maximum of GBP 333 333 excluding VAT.
