## Summary

The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), acting on behalf of the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), is conducting a procurement process titled "Supply & Delivery of new RHIBS via ITT Open Procedure". This tender aims to invite suppliers to manufacture, supply, and deliver up to three new rigid-hulled inflatable boats (RHIBS) in line with MPS specifications. The contract period is set to commence on 1st March 2022 and will last for an initial 36 months, with the possibility of a 12-month extension. Bids must adhere to a ceiling contract value of £2,901,000, not including a potential fourth RHIB. The deadline for tender submissions was 23rd September 2021, and the procurement method is an open procedure under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specializing in marine manufacturing and supply chain management within the area of goods. Companies capable of managing the complete supply chain from manufacturing to delivery will be well-suited to compete. Additionally, firms with expertise in design and aesthetics, social value, and sustainability initiatives may have competitive advantages during the tender evaluation process, which considers multiple criteria beyond pricing. Engaging in this contract could lead to long-term relationships with the MPS, especially given the multi-year delivery schedule for the boats.
