This process is currently in the planning stage, with a focus on aerial and related services. The event will take place on 19th April 2018, at the Chesterfield Mayfair Hotel in London, providing an opportunity for potential bidders to engage with the agency and understand its requirements. Interested parties must express their interest via email before the engagement deadline on the same date. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in aerial surveillance and related services, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Companies that can provide innovative aerial solutions or collaborate effectively with government departments may find this an ideal occasion to showcase their capabilities and potentially partner on future contracts. The upcoming industry day is particularly relevant for firms aiming to expand their footprint in public sector contracts and engage in meaningful collaboration with the Maritime & Coastguard Agency and other government entities. ## Notice Bidder Day Early Engagement Notice Title : Aerial Surveillance Industry Day 19th April 2018 The MCA has a requirement to undertake periodic and reactive aerial surveillance flights throughout the UK's Exclusive Economic Area. The purpose of these flights is to determine the presence, size and type of pollution on the water. The contract providing this capability is coming to an end. The end of the existing Aerial Surveillance contract presents the MCA with the opportunity to review its requirement and seek collaboration with other Government Departments (OGDs) to drive value for money in the delivery of any new aerial surveillance contract. A future procurement will potentially deliver a new aerial surveillance service working on behalf of a number of Government Departments and Agencies, including the Maritime & Coastguard Agency. The extent of this collaboration is subject to further discussion. To enable industry and potential bidders to gain an understanding of the MCA's requirements, and potentially those of OGDs and Agencies it is seeking to partner with, an Industry day will be held on the 19th April 2018. Time: 10:00 - 14:30 (Presentation delivery from 11am) Venue: Chesterfield Mayfair Hotel 35 Charles Street, Mayfair London W1J 5EB If you wish to attend the industry day, please email a request to Contracts@mcga.gov.uk expressing your interest and providing details of who will be attending. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d6044856-76c6-435a-94ec-c3dc3dd0382d | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Mar 2018 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 19 Apr 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MARITIME & COASTGUARD AGENCY | | Locality | SOUTHAMPTON | | Post town | Southampton | | Postcode | SO15 1EG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ3 Hampshire and Isle of Wight | | ITL 3 | TLJ32 Southampton | | Local authority | Southampton | | Electoral ward | Banister & Polygon | | Westminster constituency | Southampton Itchen | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 60 - Transport services (excl.
