## Summary

The Northern Lighthouse Board is conducting a tender for the supply of a replacement Ultra High Pressure (UHP) washing system pump, essential for their buoy refurbishment operations in Edinburgh, Scotland. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 5th February 2019. The contract is valued between £25,000 and £50,000 and is classed under the industry category of 'goods', specifically focusing on high-pressure cleaning apparatus. A site visit for potential suppliers is available from 23rd to 28th January 2019, which is highly recommended for those intending to bid.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in high-pressure cleaning systems, mechanical engineering, or related fields. Businesses that can efficiently develop or supply suitable equipment for maritime applications will find this procurement particularly beneficial. The open procurement method allows for broad participation, enabling SMEs to enter a competitive marketplace while also showcasing their capabilities to a key contracting authority.

## Notice

NLB's Oban base operates an Ultra High Pressure (UHP) water blasting system for the removal of marine growth and paint from Buoys during refurbishment operations. Due to the unique nature of the operation NLB are now looking for a supplier to provide a suitable UHP washing system, to remove/reduce the strain imposed on our operators through the use of the jetting gun. This exercise is being undertaken through two separate tendering exercises. One for the supply of a new replacement pump for our existing UH-160 and one for the supply of the washer unit previously advertised on 21 December 2018. This quotation is for the provision of a replacement pump to the specification detailed within the Schedule of Requirements. Site Visit There is an option to attend a site visit at our Oban premises to view the existing systems and set up between Wednesday 23 January and Monday 28 January 2019. Tenderers are advised to attend the visit to familiarise themselves with the location and the available space for the new system. Can you please contact Ruth Millan via delta e-sourcing to confirm if you would like to attend. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
