## Summary

The procurement process involves the Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL) as the buyer, seeking suppliers for the "Non-Directional Beacon Replacement Programme." This initiative falls under the "Airport-related activities" classification and includes airports in locations such as Barra, Benbecula, Campbeltown, Dundee, Inverness, Islay, and Kirkwall. The procurement method used is an open procedure, and the programme's goal is to replace MF Non-directional beacon transmitters, with completion expected by 31 March 2022. The bid submission deadline was extended to 1 July 2019, and the tender opened on 24 June 2019.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in telecommunications equipment and support services for airport operations. Suppliers with experience in delivering, installing, and commissioning aviation-related electronic systems will be well-positioned to compete. Given the project's longevity, with the contract extending for 15 years post-installation, it presents a chance for sustained partnership with HIAL, thereby enabling growth and stability for successful bidders.
