Description

This Request for Information (RFI) seeks information relating to the provision of an Army Engagement Capability Vehicle.
CURRENT SITUATION
In accordance with the Army Personnel Campaign Line of Operation 2 and current focus on Engage to Recruit the authority have identified ways to exploit and increase application volumes of Army recruits.
The Army must exploit opportunities for recruitment enabling engagement of appropriate demographics. Technologically minded, young adults are just such a demographic. Engage to Recruit aspects have been introduced at the last INSOMNIA Esports event and the Army stand was the most visited stand with the most interaction.
Army Esports has proved an extremely successful engagement tool for the Army, hitting the right audience, age group and hard to reach groups. Currently external engagement events require a large degree of time, logistics and costs to execute correctly. The Army requires an Army Branded Mobile Capability vehicle to attend these events. The authority would like to lease a Vehicle, not purchase one.
OUR AIMS - WHAT WE WANT TO ACHIEVE
The Customer is looking for one or more Suppliers to deliver the following aims:
- A Contracted solution to provide and deliver an Army Branded Esports Expeditionary Vehicle to the required specification and attend key engagement events across the UK such as INSOMNIA Gaming Festival. Daily use of the Vehicle will be required for 3-4 events per month during the Spring/ Summer/ Autumn period, events can be from 1-3 days each.
