As of December 2016, Open Source Enterprise operates a facility at [[Caversham Park]] alongside the UK's equivalent open-source intelligence service, [[BBC Monitoring]]. In an information-sharing collaboration at Caversham, BBC Monitoring handles media from 25% of the world while Open Source handles the remaining 75%. There are plans to move Monitoring's headquarters elsewhere, possibly impacting this cooperation.<ref name="BBC Defence">[httphttps://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-38372067 BBC Monitoring: MPs raise fears over service's future]</ref>
