## Summary

The procurement process for hydraulic training equipment, titled "Hydraulic Training Equipment," was conducted by Southampton Solent University. This process falls under the industry category of goods, specifically hydraulic equipment, and is intended for use at Warsash Maritime School. The procurement method used was a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as the contract was below the threshold requiring such a notice. The process has reached the 'Award' stage, with the contract now being active after being signed on 6th February 2025. The winning bidder, Mechatronics International Limited, secured the contract valued at £36,000. The contract is specifically for pneumatic and hydraulic equipment necessary for mandatory cadet training, and it was located in the South East region of England (UKJ32).

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in the development and supply of hydraulic equipment. Companies with expertise in manufacturing and providing training equipment for educational institutions in the maritime field would be well-positioned to compete. Although the contract has been awarded without prior competitive tendering procedures due to its specific requirements falling outside standard directive application, similar future opportunities may arise for businesses that provide bespoke educational training solutions. The transparency of this procurement helps ensure potential suppliers are aware of market opportunities within public sector education bodies, such as Southampton Solent University.
