## Summary

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has completed a tender process for the "Support and Maintenance of MCA branded Examiners Hub", which falls under the subscription services category. This procurement, valued at £17,500, involved a direct method through a single tender action due to it being below threshold, with the contract covering the period from 1st July 2021 to 30th June 2022. The procurement process was initiated in Southampton, South East England, with a set deadline for submissions that concluded on 30th June 2021.
