Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence as the buying organisation, with BAE Systems Maritime Naval Ships selected as the supplier for delivering the "Sonar 2117 In Service Support (ERMC)" project. This contract addresses the Environmental Risk Management Capability (ERMC) involved in sonar operations, which is crucial for assessing the impact of active sonar on marine mammals. Classified under the 'Sonars' CPV code 38113000, the procurement follows a limited, negotiated procedure due to technical reasons, with no prior publication above the threshold. The contract spans from 2024 to 2027, and its geographical reach covers the United Kingdom and various territories including the British Overseas Territories and beyond. The award was finalized on 23rd September 2024, with a contract start date on 1st October 2024.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities particularly for large-scale enterprises with expertise in environmental risk management systems, sonar technology, and defence contracting. SMEs and VCSEs might find the tender's specialization and procurement method challenging, as evidenced by the absence of specific suitability. Businesses capable of supplying advanced technical support and maintenance of sonar-related software would find this tender highly relevant. The technical specificity and confined scope of providers demonstrate the Ministry of Defence's reliance on established, knowledgeable contractors in this domain, highlighting opportunities for entities with deep technical knowledge and historical involvement in similar projects.
