This procurement, classified under the air traffic control software package segment, is currently in the planning stage. The estimated timeframe for the publication of a Contract Notice is October 2022, with the contract award expected in early 2023. The systems will be operational at Dundee, Kirkwall, and Stornoway Airports by the end of 2023, facilitating enhanced situational awareness for Air Traffic Control Officers and Aerodrome Flight Information Service Officers. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for suppliers in the technology and aviation sectors, particularly those specialising in air traffic control software and systems integration. Businesses with expertise in developing compliant, real-time information display solutions will be well-positioned to compete. The phased approach of the project not only opens potential for initial contract delivery but may also allow for subsequent redeployment to other airports, depending on HIAL's strategic direction, thus amplifying the scope for successful bidders. ## Notice The purpose of this notice is to update potential Suppliers on HIAL's plans for procurement of Flight Information Display (FID) Systems. FID systems will provide Air Traffic Control Officers (ATCOs) and Aerodrome Flight Information Service Officers (AFISOs) with enhanced situational awareness of aircraft flying in the vicinity of the Airport through the display on an integrated, cooperative real time air picture. This notice supersedes the Periodic Indicative Notice published on the Find a Tender Service on 13 August 2021 with reference: 2021/S 000-019728. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL) operates and manages eleven airports throughout the north of Scotland and plays a vital role in the Scotland's air transport network. A mixture of Air Traffic Control (ATC) and Aerodrome Flight Information Service (AFIS) provision ensures delivery of the required level of Air Traffic Service (ATS) to support lifeline and commercial air operations. As part of its continuing effort to enhance the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of its ATS, HIAL is currently exploring options to install Flight Information Display (FID) systems at several of its airports operating in uncontrolled airspace (Class G) without conventional ground-based surveillance systems. When operational, the new FID systems will provide Air Traffic Control Officers (ATCOs) and Aerodrome Flight Information Service Officers (AFISOs) with enhanced situational awareness via the display of an integrated, cooperative real time air picture. HIAL will work with local colleagues and key stakeholders to develop the Operational Requirement and technical specification to procure a suitable and regulatory compliant FID solution using a competent supplier. The project, which will be managed in accordance with HIAL's established project management process, will follow a phased approach: Phase 1: Definition, Specification, and Procurement. Phase 2: Delivery at three HIAL airports. Phase 3: Potential redeployment to other HIAL airports is dependent on HIAL Board approval of the implementation of the revised strategic direction for air traffic modernisation. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/014744-2022 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 May 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 20 Oct 2022 | | 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 | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS AIRPORTS LTD | | Locality | INVERNESS | | Post town | Inverness | | Postcode | IV2 7JB | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Highland | | Electoral ward | Culloden and Ardersier | | Westminster constituency | Moray West, Nairn and Strathspey | | Delivery location | TLM6 Highlands and Islands, TLM71 Angus and Dundee City | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems ### Codes - 48121000 - Air traffic control software package ## Release History - 26 May 2022 at 12:33 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/014744-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.hial.co.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000691600 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=691600 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA13542 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
