## Summary

The Maritime & Coastguard Agency is seeking to procure three Vacuum Skimmer Systems, with a total budget of £60,000. These systems are intended to assist in the recovery of oil from shorelines and will include essential components such as vacuum pumps and power packs. The tender process, classified under the CPV code for services related to oil pollution, follows an open procedure and has already concluded, with the final bid submission deadline having been on 24 November 2017. The contract is set to commence on 4 December 2017 and will be operational until 30 March 2018, with delivery expected in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage in the specialised field of oil pollution recovery. Companies with expertise in manufacturing vacuum systems, pumps, or related technologies would be well positioned to compete, as the project necessitates tailored solutions for effective operation across various oil viscosities. The awarding of the contract, valued at £54,325, reinforces the potential for business growth within this niche industry, allowing vendors to demonstrate their capabilities and contribute to environmental recovery efforts.

## Notice

The MCA wishes to purchase three Vacuum Skimmer Systems, complete with power packs, vacuum pumps and discharge pumps. These systems will be used to recover oil on the shoreline and transfer it into temporary storage. We would envision that each complete system will comprise of a lance or wand to recover oil, a suction pump and a transfer pump with all of the required hosing and a power pack. Both the vacuum hose and the discharge hose should be at least 10ft. The system must also incorporate a vacuum vessel i.e. a hopper, drum or tanker. The systems will be capable of recovering all oil viscosities, from lighter oils to sludge and small solids.
