## Summary

Waveney District Council is initiating a tender for the "Repair and Maintenance of Aids to Navigation". This procurement process, categorised under coastal-defence works, is scheduled to span from 9 December 2019 to 12 December 2022. The council has set a budget of £200,000 for the term contract, with a minimum value of £120,000. Interested parties should note that the future notice for this tender is expected to be published on 14 October 2019, with the geographic focus on the Suffolk Coast, specifically from Corton to Felixstowe and along the River Deben. The procurement method is designated as selective and will be executed through a dynamic purchasing system.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary or community sector organisations (VCSOs) specialising in marine, coastal, and navigation services. Businesses that successfully tender will have the chance to engage in essential maintenance and inspection activities for crucial navigational aids, contributing to coastal safety and maritime infrastructure integrity. Companies with expertise in coastal defence, marine engineering, or maintenance services are particularly well-placed to compete in this procurement process.

## Notice

East Suffolk Council is planning to invite tenders for a Term Contract over 3 years to undertake inspections of, and carry out works to, defective Aids to Navigation (AtoN) along the Suffolk Coast from Corton to Felixstowe and on the River Deben, that cannot be accessed by land-based equipment. Those AtoN that are accessible from land are maintained by others under a separate coastal structure repair and maintenance contract.
