The membership and structure of the Defence Suppliers Forum (DSF) and its respective sub-committees are kept under review to ensure it is representative of the Ministry of Defence's (MOD) suppliers. Feedback from industry indicates that it continues to represent a valuable mechanism for engaging with the MOD on current and future priorities and requirements.<\/p>

In addition the Industry days organised by the Department and/or domains are usually based on business cases that state the objectives and benefits of the event and which require evaluation of success. Some examples of key outcomes of an event include an increase in industry awareness of the aims and developments of the procurement strategy, an increase in MOD understanding of the key themes and issues faced by industry, and the early identification of potential risks to the strategy. The success of the event is then evaluated both in terms of the level of interest expressed by industry in the event, and the level of understanding and buy-in determined through a simple event questionnaire.<\/p>

The MOD monitors the number of supplier and buyer enquires received via the Defence Contracts Online Portal. The latest available figures show that between January and July 2014, the total number of queries received was nearly 3,500. During this period, nearly 1,200 tender and contract notices were advertised on the portal.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1542", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Philip Dunne"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Ludlow"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Philip Dunne"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-12-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-12-02T17:51:03.28Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "11"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-11-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Defence: Procurement"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 23 October 2014 to Question 209332, by what mechanisms his Department assesses the effectiveness of its communications to industry of its future requirements.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/268", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Peter Luff"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Mid Worcestershire"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Sir Peter Luff"} ], "uin" : "216299"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/166543", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Defence"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/166543/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Information on contracts placed by the Ministry of Defence (MOD), including the nature of those contracts, is published on gov.uk as part of the MOD trade, industry and contracts statistics: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/mod-industry-trade-and-contracts-2014<\/p>

Table 1.01.06 'New contracts placed by type' shows that the MOD awarded 2,328 contracts in 2013-14, with a value of £6,205 million. Of these, 39% were awarded on a competitive basis, and 56% were non-competitive.

As part of the Army 2020 programme, 7,280 Service personnel were made redundant in tranches 1 to 3 of the Armed Forces Redundancy Programme and around 1,000 personnel were selected in the fourth and final tranche, the majority of whom will have left the Army by June 2015. All personnel selected receive at least six months notice, twelve if they did not apply for redundancy. On leaving the Armed Forces, personnel cease to be entitled to occupy Service Family Accommodation (SFA). While the Ministry of Defence will always be as flexible as possible in order to allow families the maximum time to secure alternative accommodation, on occasions it becomes necessary to proceed to eviction action in order that properties can be made available to entitled Service families. To date, a total of three Army personnel made redundant under the Armed Forces Redundancy Programme have been evicted from SFA.<\/p>

The missile tubes for the Successor Programme are being procured as part of the collaborative Common Missile Compartment (CMC) project with the US. General Dynamics Electric Boat has been awarded an $83.8 million contract modification by the US Department of Defense to continue development of the CMC.<\/p>

<\/p>

The contract provides funding for 17 missile tubes; four for the US submarine programme, one for a US shore test facility and 12 missile tubes for the Successor Programme. The 12 UK missile tubes\u2019 share of this contract is estimated at $59 million. Costs beyond the first 17 tubes have yet to be agreed, and it would prejudice commercial interests to estimate costs at this stage.
