This procurement is classified under the industry category of Airport-related activities and is currently in the planning stage. The associated documentation indicates that a market consultation is in progress, with feedback due by 22nd June 2018. The primary location for this service is within the UK, particularly at seven airports managed by HIAL. The procurement is structured as a tender aimed at understanding market capabilities prior to the formal tender specification. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in air traffic management systems, surveillance technology, and infrastructure development. Companies with experience in delivering 'turn-key' solutions, including design, implementation, and operational support for air traffic services, will be well-suited to participate. Firms that can demonstrate an understanding of the associated regulatory frameworks and possess capabilities for collaborative development with operational staff will find this procurement particularly relevant for expanding their business offerings within the aviation sector. ## Notice Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL) would like to inform the potential scope and specification of a Centralised Surveillance, Airspace Change and Remote Tower solution from which to deliver Air Traffic Services (ATS). This is with a view to potentially procuring a fully managed 'turn-key' solution, or other potential delivery model, that will deliver everything necessary to transfer ATS operations. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL) would like to inform the potential scope and specification of a Centralised Surveillance, Airspace Change and Remote Tower solution from which to deliver Air Traffic Services (ATS). This is with a view to potentially procuring a fully managed 'turn-key' solution, or other potential delivery model, that will deliver everything necessary to transfer ATS operations. Any procured solution must involve the operational Air Traffic Services staff from the start of the programme and continue to actively involve them throughout the design, implementation and operational delivery of the Centralised Surveillance, Airspace Change and Remote Tower Solution. It is currently envisaged that a fully managed 'turn-key' solution would involve the design, development, testing, validation, transition and maintenance of all necessary ATS technical infrastructure plus construction/building modification of the Central Surveillance Centre. To the extent possible, it is also expected that the necessary transition support, such as training and support to approvals will also be included in the procurement such that everything is developed, installed, tested and even transitioned to operations, ready for HIAL to 'turn the key' and take over operations. The end result will be the provision of a non-radar approach surveillance service (sensors, processing and a centralised suite of approach positions) and Remote or 'digital' aerodrome service at 7 airports. In parallel to the tasks above, it is also expected that an airspace change process will be undertaken to introduce controlled airspace at several airports, for which HIAL would seek support. Any phasing of the tasks defined above will also need to take account of this airspace change process. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY320163 | | Notice type | OJEU - F4 - Prior Information Notice (Utilities) | | 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 | 25 May 2018 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 May 2019 | | 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 LIMITED | | 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 | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 38 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 38110000 - Navigational instruments - 48120000 - Flight control software package - 48121000 - Air traffic control software package - 72212120 - Flight control software development services - 72212121 - Air traffic control software development services ## Release History - 25 May 2018 at 00:00 - Planning - OJEU - F4 - Prior Information Notice (Utilities) - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY320163 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=MAY320163&idx=1 28th May 2018 - Pre-Tender Market Consultation - Information and Context document - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=MAY320163&idx=2 28th May 2018 - Pre-Tender Market Consultation - Questionnaire - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY320163 Centralised Surveillance, Airspace Change and Remote Towers Air Traffic Management Service - Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL) would like to inform the potential scope and specification of a Centralised Surveillance, Airspace Change and Remote Tower solution from which to deliver Air Traffic Services (ATS).
