Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves KBS Maritime Ltd as the contracting authority and pertains to PA System Installation Works. This tender covers the survey, design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a new external Public Address System at HMNB Portsmouth. The procurement is within the industry category of public address systems and utilises a selective procurement method known as the restricted procedure. The tender is currently in its active stage, with the end of the tender period set for 19th September 2025 at 12:00 BST. It encompasses a wide delivery area including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and globally. The project is valued at £2,000,000 GBP, with a contract period commencing on 20th September 2025 and concluding on 21st September 2025.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in public address systems, particularly those capable of handling large-scale installations and international delivery requirements. Although the procurement process employs a restricted procedure, businesses with robust credentials in technical system installations and project management in the relevant sectors will find this opportunity appealing. However, the tender is not specifically suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, suggesting that larger or more established companies with experience in managing extensive projects and compliance with international standards are better suited to compete. The involvement of KBS Maritime Ltd further enhances the opportunity's prestige, potentially fostering long-term business growth and credibility for successful contractors.
