About

AFBI is seeking a supplier for the supply and delivery of a Sub Bottom Profiler 70904, including a two-year warranty, availability of technical support, and training of staff in the use of the instrument. The contract commences from the date of delivery and runs for a total of 10 years: the first two years cover supply, delivery and the two-year warranty, and the remaining eight years cover the support package and purchase of any consumables required. This procurement is for goods under an Open/Competitive Flexible procedure as a public contract and the tender requires qualification, technical and financial envelopes; relevant CPV codes include hydrographic instruments, surveying, marine equipment and marine survey services.

Insight

This could be ideal for manufacturers or suppliers of hydrographic and marine survey instruments who can provide equipment, staff training and a long-term support and consumables supply package. Key considerations include the required two-year warranty plus an eight-year support period and the need to submit qualification, technical and financial envelopes under an open competitive procedure.
