All tender information must be submitted through the CCS eSourcing Portal. The British Antarctic Survey is seeking to purchase two Rigid Hull Boats. The craft need to be tough and durable; capable of withstanding the polar environment, including the ability to operate in ice, beaching and rough weather.

Science operations vary widely but include: * transfer of personnel and equipment to/from remote sites * deployment of sampling equipment via fixed winch (see Appendix A, image 4 Launching using Wharf Crane) * surface sampling of ice/water * recovery of autonomous underwater vehicles Diving operations are conducted on SCUBA and typically involve a team of four (2 divers, Supervisor, Coxswain), although other may be present on board to assist or observe. All diving is done in compliance with the UK Diving at Work Regulations 1997 and the HSE Approved Code of Practice and Guidance for Scientific and Archaeological Diving Projects. The successful bidder is required to allow site visitation and a demonstration of a similar model to be supplied. This will take place post award but pre-contract. The successful bidder will also be required to submit the craft for a test drive once they have been built. The craft structure must be coded to Category 3 MCA commercial level. Warranty: The hull must come with a minimum 5 year warranty. Longer warranty periods are preferred. Delivery: Delivery to Poole in Dorset by 10th August 2018.
