Summary of the contracting process

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL), part of the UK Ministry of Defence, has recently completed the procurement process for the provision of Greensea Safe C2 and two Training Simulator Systems. This tender, valued at approximately £230,000, falls under the goods category, specifically relating to unmanned underwater vehicles (CPV code: 35512400). The procurement was conducted using a limited method known as the Negotiated Procedure without Prior Publication of a Contract Notice due to technical reasons, with the contract awarded to Wight Ocean Ltd, the sole authorised supplier for these systems in the UK. The contract was signed on 6 December 2021, with delivery expected in the UK.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the defence and technology sectors, particularly those specialising in unmanned systems and military equipment. Companies with expertise in advanced simulation technologies, training systems for defence applications, or related areas would be particularly well-suited to engage in future tenders for similar contracts. The unique nature of the goods involved and the technical specifications required mean competitors must offer innovative solutions to meet the specific demands of the DSTL's Mine Investigation and Exploitation by Remote Operated Vehicle project.
