## Summary

The Corporation of Trinity House in London has initiated a tender process for the provision of support for the Automatic Light Dues Information System (ALDIS). The procurement falls under the services category and involves software support services related to managing Light Dues certificates and port arrival data. The tender deadline is set for September 1, 2022, with the contract period starting on November 1, 2022, and ending on October 31, 2025.

This opportunity is suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to offer software support services within the maritime industry. Businesses with expertise in Java development and software maintenance may find this tender particularly well-suited for their capabilities. Trinity House's transition to a new developer presents a growth opportunity for firms interested in providing ongoing support for the ALDIS system owned by the General Lighthouse Authorities.

## Notice

The Automatic Light Dues Information System (ALDIS) was developed in two phases over 2004 and 2005 by two different developers. It is written in Java and although currently supported by the developer who wrote the second phase of the software, Trinity House now needs to transition support to a new developer. The key functions of ALDIS are: * To allow Light Dues certificates to be issued by the 'Collectors', usually shipping agents affiliated to the Institute of Chartered Ship Brokers and appointed as Light Dues Collectors, and * To record port record arrival data to verify the movement of vessels arriving to UK & RoI ports and their liability to pay Light Dues. The ALDIS software (code and IPR) is owned by the General Lighthouse Authorities (GLAs) and funded from the General Lighthouse Fund (GLF).
