UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office bought works to upgrade navigation equipment on Border Force Maritime’s coastal patrol vessels. The requirement was to replace obsolete radar components already fitted within the vessels’ integrated navigation systems, covering five vessels. The equipment is for marine patrol vessels, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The work was intended to improve or renew the existing onboard radar installation rather than supply patrol vessels themselves. The Home Office is the buyer.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Grundon Marine. The contract was signed on 23 October 2025, with a contract period from 27 October 2025 to 30 November 2026. Its recorded contract value is £96,826; the initial estimated value was £60,000. The procedure was an open competition below the procurement threshold. There was one lot. Bids were scored on a combined basis: technical quality counted for 20% and price for 80%. The tender deadline was 30 September 2025. The original project description aimed for the first vessel upgrade to be completed by the end of December 2025.

For suppliers considering similar future work for the Home Office, this award shows demand for marine navigation-system upgrades on a small fleet of coastal patrol vessels, specifically replacement radar components integrated with existing onboard systems. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate practical capability in marine radar installation or replacement, compatibility with integrated navigation systems, and the capacity to carry out upgrades across multiple vessels. Experience working on patrol or other operational vessels would be relevant to the requirement’s context. The competition placed substantially more emphasis on price than technical quality, so suppliers would need both a competitive commercial offer and a convincing technical solution. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that this requirement was delivered by a small business rather than being limited to a large contractor.»}}burugburu തുടങ്ങി怎么领奖?
