This tender falls under the services category, specifically reconditioning services of ships or boats, and targets the South West region of the United Kingdom. Currently in the tender stage, it follows a competitive procedure with negotiation, above the threshold, with a tender period concluding on 31 March 2025. Key dates include a contract period from 18 December 2025 to 31 March 2033. Layla Richards is the contact point for this initiative. This procurement offers significant business opportunities, especially for SMEs, as it supports the reconditioning and maintenance industry for maritime vessels. With a substantial budget and a long-term contract, businesses involved in ship or boat reconditioning services can expand their portfolios and gain a foothold in government contracts. Companies in the South West region, or those with the capability to operate there, will likely find the logistical considerations advantageous. Engaging in this contract can enhance reputation and credibility in the defence sector, potentially leading to additional projects with the Ministry of Defence and similar organisations. ## Notice This is a Transparency Notice ITN for 712775453 -
