Lessons Contractors may be required to work at other UK based MOD locations as required by the Authority. These locations are not predetermined and would arise due to demand for lessons capability. Lessons Contractors will be responsible for collecting, analysing, actioning, implementing and validating lessons from UK Defence operations and exercises, wargaming events, experimentation, and innovation activities. This will be conducted, in accordance with relevant Defence Lessons Policies, which will be shared with Lessons Contractors during the 10 working day mobilisation period, and using tools, primarily the Defence Lessons Identified Management System (DLIMS).The Contractor will also need to provide a Project Manager to oversee the activity outlined at Deliverable 1 (kick-off meeting) and 6 (quarterly performance reviews) and any associated actions that arise from these deliverables.
