This procurement, categorized under the goods industry, specifically targets depth indicators (CPV: 38425300). The procurement stage is at the Award phase as of 20th December 2024. The awarded supplier for this contract is Teledyne Valeport Limited, which is located in Totnes. The total value of the award is GBP 10,070.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of marine instruments and depth measuring devices.

By participating in such tenders, businesses can grow their market presence and establish valuable relationships with government buyers, thus facilitating future opportunities in public sector contracts.

## Notice

The Scottish Ministers invites bids for the purchase of two (2) underwater altimeter and depth measuring instruments.Our current stock of six Altimeter and Depth Instruments in use for underwater TV surveys are becoming unreliable and requiring regular repairs to keep them operational. The newest of these instruments are at least 15 years old and are now significantly less accurate and with less resolution than a modern equivalent instrument and thus we wish to seek some replacement units.
