The tender, titled "UK SBS PS17107 Purchase of a Wheeled Loader," is classified under the industry category of all-terrain vehicles and is located in the South East of England. The tender was published on 23rd October 2017, with a closing time for bids set for 27th November 2017 at 11:00 hours. This procurement is being conducted through an open procedure as per the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and the contract period is scheduled to run from 18th December 2017 to 18th October 2018. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the goods sector, particularly those specialising in the manufacturing or supply of heavy machinery, such as wheeled loaders. Companies equipped to handle logistical operations in challenging environments, such as loading and unloading cargo in remote locations like Rothera, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Additionally, businesses offering related services, such as training and technical support for these machinery operations, may find valuable avenues for engaging with the British Antarctic Survey's requirements. ## Notice *** This tender requirement was abandoned prior to a Contract award decision. *** CLOSING TIME FOR BIDS IS 27/11/2017 11:00 HOURS. DO NOT APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE BUYER. The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) carries out an ambitious and challenging programme of science. This is supported by a fleet of five aircraft, specially adapted to operate in the extreme Antarctic climate and two ships visiting Rothera annually during the Antarctic. BAS has a requirement to procure a new Wheeled Loader to ensure that the snow clearing operations of priority areas and assist in cargo logistics during ship calls at Rothera can continue. It is critical that specifications are met paying particular attention to cargo logistics operation. During cargo ship calls the Wheeled loader will be operated on predominantly level ground with occasional small pot holes on gravel hard standing. Main purpose is to lift 20ft ISO containers with machine fork attachment through container fork pockets at container max weight 15000kg from ground level to storage area 50m to 100m away from ship and placed at ground level. Amount of containers to be moved is approximately 20 units.
