## Summary

The Department for Transport (DfT) is currently seeking proposals for the "Maritime CT: Ports of Reception Exercise" project, which aims to enhance national security within the transport sector. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on transport services and research and development consultancy. The tender is in the active stage with a submission deadline set for 4th October 2021. The project will cover delivery addresses across the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories, with the contract expected to commence on 8th November 2021 and conclude by 31st March 2022. An open procedure is being employed for this procurement, allowing a wide range of participants to submit their bids.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in transport and safety services, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies that provide security and resilience consultancy, as well as those involved in research and development related to transportation safety, would be particularly well-positioned to compete. Engaging in this project can not only contribute to the sector's security but also allow participating firms to expand their capabilities and enhance their portfolio within the UK transport infrastructure.
