AUV Frame Fabrication
This is a contract result notice, not an open opportunity. Details from the official award data.
This sits below the typical range for Construction contracts — a smaller, more accessible award. Based on 64,002 valued Construction tenders in our corpus.
The Salvage & Marine Operations Team, part of UK MOD, has a requirement for the manufacturing of a steel interface frame in accordance with a detailed specification and engineering drawing pack to enable the mounting of a containerised autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) system onto the aft deck of a chartered vessel.
The load bearing frame is required to meet the static and dynamic forces exerted by the motions of a vessel in a seaway and when the AUV launch & recovery system is in its deployed configuration.
The frame should be portable, capable of being lifted into position by crane and secured in position by means of standard container fittings.
Additional Information - This requirement is being met by issuing Requests for Quotes (RFQ) from a shortlist of suppliers and any other suppliers wishing to participate.
The Authority shall invite a minimum of three suppliers to tender for this requirement.
Suppliers interested in receiving an RFQ should notify Beth.Weaver101@mod.gov.uk via email by 17:00 on 25th May 2020.
