SDA Capability Map 2026 update

2026-11-03

**Update 22/10/2026 - There's just over a week remaining to contribute information about potential systems, sensors, products and data solutions that could potentially help address the UK cross-government SDA requirements. Please do consider providing information.**Note, this activity is not directly related to a specific procurement and any information provided are without commitment and prejudice for all parties. Therefore, there will not be a contract issued following this exercise.The purpose of this spreadsheet is to understand how different systems, sensors, products and data solutions provided by industry could address the UK Cross-Government SDA requirements. This may help to inform the potential contributions to a UK SDA Systems of Systems that will address these requirements operationally. UK government will use the data provided in the creation of a Capability Map, allowing analysis of current UK capabilities against the requirement set, including consideration of how commercial offerings could close gaps. Furthermore, gap analysis on the full Capability Map will allow UK government to identify areas where further research and development activity may be required, when no sovereign or commercial offerings are available to meet a requirement.With the 2026 update to the SDA Requirements, and in order to keep the Capability Map current, this RFI activity is a continuation of the previous call and will likely be repeated in the future. This RFI provides the standardised format for commercial to demonstrate current capabilities and reflect growth, and UK government to track the health of the sector and available capabilities.We ask that respondees complete the spreadsheet for the systems etc they offer. This may require multiple returns, depending on the commercial capability. If you have responded to a previous call please do so again with your current capabilities.
