Opportunity overview

The Welding Institute (TWI) is a professional engineering institution supporting skills development in the fields of welding, joining and allied technologies. The Submarine Delivery Agency intends to award a contract to TWI for the continuation and access of this industrial membership for a duration of two years, commencing April 2025 – Mar 2026. As a member of TWI, SDA will benefit from access to powerful collaborative research that promotes advancement of the science and practice of welding, joining and allied processes allowing safer operations. TWI membership provides us with an exclusive package of specialist skills expertise and tools to support workforce development, increased professionalism, competence, and benchmarking. Along with access to specialist courses and solutions at discounted rates. TWI membership provides for access to the world’s largest array of welding and joining information via their website, archives, and library. Whilst benefits of Technical Memberships are specific to individual organisations, typically including one or more of: Reduced cost for bespoke products and services (inc. training): Inclusive packages of technical support: Facilitated networking with relevant external communities: Access to bespoke data and information: Opportunities for, and explicit recognition of, MoD's contribution to wider technical initiatives and its related competence (with associated reputational enhancement): Access to other related sectors of industry of value to defence. The impact of not subscribing to this initiative would be to miss out on recruitment opportunities, Working Group insight and innovation input, career development, networking and collaboration opportunities and progression of SDA engineering, science, and technology objectives.
