Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This event is set to take place online in early May, with an engagement end date of 1st May 2020, inviting industry stakeholders to gain insights into the MCA's objectives. The contract primarily falls under the classification of search and rescue helicopters and related aerial services, covering delivery addresses across the United Kingdom and beyond.
