The call for tender to ensure the provision of the Galileo Services for the period 2027-2036 is now open. A webinar is organised on February 3 to present the call.

Galileo, the EU´s Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), provides improved navigation, positioning and timing information. Unlike other global satellite navigation systems, Galileo is a system conceived with secure service provision to end users at its core already serving more than 4 billion users.

EUSPA has launched a procedure looking for support on the performance of Galileo Service Operations, to ensure the provision of the Galileo Services for the period 2027-2036. This role involves operating and maintaining Galileo’s ground and space segments, ensuring that all of Galileo’s billions of users continue to benefit from the world’s most precise positioning system.

Galileo Service Operations activities to be performed will comprehend operations of the Galileo Core Infrastructure; operations of the GNSS Service Centre (GSC) Infrastructure significantly for what concerns Signal-in-Space (SiS) activities; performance of the Infrastructure Logistic Support of the Galileo Core Infrastructure and of the GSC Infrastructure under its responsibility; provision of enabling services required for the operations of the above infrastructure; Hosting Services; Communication Services; Geodetic Services; Timing Services; support to the evolution activities of the Galileo System; and, support to security (including cybersecurity) of the Galileo System.

The ceiling of the FWC is 2,600,000,000, EUR.

To encourage the widest participation possible, EUSPA is organising an online webinar to present the procedure details structured in 3 phases on February 3, 2025, from 10:00 am to 12:00 am CET.
