France-Paris: Observation satellites
The Copernicus programme is an evolution of the previous Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES), an Earth monitoring initiative led by the European Union (EU) and carried out in partnership with the EU Member States and the European Space Agency (ESA) established to fulfil the growing need amongst European policy-makers to access accurate and timely information services to better manage the environment, understand and mitigate the effects of climate change and ensure civil security. The Agency will release 6 requests for proposals covering the implementation of the Phase B2/C/D/E1 for each of the HPCM missions, encompassing the procurement of both the prototype (instrument(s) and spacecraft), funded by the ESA Member States under the CSC-4 Programme, and the recurrent satellites, funded by the EU under the future MFF 2021-2027, where the recurrent satellites are offered at the same time as the prototype and are implemented as contractual options in a single contract.
