On 5 September 2025, the PCP WISE group of 12 public buyers officially launched its Call for Tenders to co-develop next-generation water intelligence products and services powered by Earth Observation (EO). Interested suppliers have until 7 January 2026, 17:00 CET to submit their proposals.
The Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) will unfold in three phases—solution design, prototype development, and field validation—funding R&D services that target TRL 8 solutions. The initiative aims to deliver innovative EO-powered intelligence tools to monitor the Soil-Water-Vegetation (SWV) system and support public authorities in predicting, preventing, and managing water-related crises such as floods, wildfires, and droughts.
To support potential suppliers, the PCP WISE consortium is organising an informative webinar on:
📅 15 September 2025
🕙 10:00 – 11:30 CET
The session will provide:
- An introduction to the PCP WISE project and its objectives
- Insights into the SWV monitoring challenge and the five use cases guiding the procurement
- Guidance on the PCP process and tender requirements
- A walk-through of the tender documents and forms
- A dedicated Q&A session with the PCP WISE team
