## Summary

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has completed the procurement process for a strategic ship register managed service, including the Bunkers capability, under the G-Cloud 13 framework. This selective procurement has recently been awarded to CATAPULT CX LIMITED, with a contract value of £128,100. The procurement, classified under IT services focusing on consulting, software development, internet, and support, covered the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement process has reached the award stage with the contract period running from 3rd December 2024 to 3rd April 2025, following a tender period that concluded on 26th November 2024.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in managed IT services, particularly those in the maritime industry, focusing on vessel registration and civil liabilities insurance under the UK Flag. Companies with expertise in supporting strategic ship registry systems and managed services will find this contract conducive to business growth. The process favours small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), offering them a platform to expand their presence in international and UK maritime markets through collaboration with reputable public agencies like the MCA. Businesses that have a track record or are willing to innovate within the framework agreements will find this a substantial opportunity to leverage their capabilities and experience.

## Notice

The MCA has a requirement for a managed service offering to support the UKSR strategic ship register including Bunkers capability. The Service is required to enable the MCA to provide services to Commercial, Fishing and Pleasure Vessel Owners in the Maritime services industry on the UK Ship Register. This underpins the Agency ability to provide 7 days a week service capability, for owners/operators who may wish to register their vessel on the UK Flag, or provide Civil Liabilities insurance services under the UK Flag. This is a 4 month extension to an existing G-Cloud 13 contract, including dual running and exit activities.
