National Power Outage Plan Exercise

  • Met Office

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-07ba81

Description

The Met Office is seeking a suitably qualified supplier to design, facilitate, and report on a crisis management exercise to test its National Power Outage Plan.

The exercise will validate the effectiveness of the plan, assess organisational preparedness, test strategic decision-making and governance arrangements, and identify opportunities for improvement. The focus will be on crisis management, leadership, communications, escalation, and business continuity coordination during a prolonged national power outage, rather than a multi-agency operational response.

The supplier will be expected to:

 Develop a high-level exercise concept and objectives.

 Facilitate design workshops with key stakeholders.

 Produce a detailed exercise plan and supporting materials.

 Develop a realistic national power outage scenario.

 Facilitate the exercise and manage injects and exercise control.

 Capture observations, decisions, actions, and lessons identified.

 Produce reporting to support continuous improvement.
