## Summary

The Corporation of Trinity House has completed the procurement process for the tender titled "GB-London: T0409 - R&RNAV Future of Visual Signalling". This initiative, classified under navigation services, is based in London, UK. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure, with a tender period that ended on 30th August 2018. The contract, valued at £24,000, commenced on 1st September 2018 and is scheduled to run until 31st March 2019.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in maritime navigation and technology, particularly for firms that can provide expertise in visual signalling and machine vision technologies. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as the contracting authority sees potential for engagement with such operators. Businesses that excel in innovative navigation solutions would be particularly well-suited to participate in future tenders related to this field.

## Notice

One of the main aims of the Research & Radionavigation Directorate (R&RNAV) is to review the possibilities of allowing the mariner to continue navigation in the event of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) failure. As such, it is envisaged that visual or near-visual signalling will continue to be an important part of the resilient positioning and navigation solution at sea. R&RNAV has two projects that require the engagement of services of an external, authoritative, maritime navigation expert for additional support in providing a summary of the state-of-the-art in the visual signalling and machine vision technologies. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
