## Summary

The Scottish Government is conducting a public procurement process for a 'Temporary Crewing Framework' to provide staffing for its fleet of marine patrol and research vessels. This tender is currently in the Award stage, with the total value of the contract amounting to £3.6 million. The contract was signed on 1st November 2018, following the tender period which closed on 13th August 2018. The provisions for crewing will be executed on vessels operating within Scottish and potentially international waters, reinforcing the focus on services within the maritime industry.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in maritime staffing services, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises that have prior experience in providing crew for marine vessels. Companies such as Genesis Personnel Limited, Clyde Marine Recruitment, and Seamariner Limited have already been identified as awardees, highlighting the competitive landscape for contract fulfilment. Businesses that can demonstrate a strong understanding of crew management, maritime regulations, and quality safety standards will be well-positioned to leverage this framework for growth in the maritime sector.
