The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has completed a tender process for the "Support and Maintenance of MCA branded Examiners Hub", which falls under the subscription services category. This procurement, valued at £17,500, involved a direct method through a single tender action due to it being below threshold, with the contract covering the period from 1st July 2021 to 30th June 2022.
