Description

***THIS PIN NOTICE IS TO NOTIFY SUPPLIERS OF A POTENTIAL UPCOMING REQUIREMENT THAT WILL BE ADVERTISED THROUGH OPEN TENDER VIA CONTRACTS FINDER *** British Antarctic Survey's new ship the RRS Sir David Attenborough (SDA) predominantly takes cargo in 20ft ISO shipping containers. Due to the strict biosecurity requirements for shipping to Antarctica, we are looking into options for container biosecurity activities prior to loading onto our ship and other partner organisation vessels. Suppliers must be able to provide the services described below at locations across the United Kingdom, though the primary locations these activities will be required are Harwich Port and British Antarctic Survey's HQ in Cambridge. This will be a five year call off contract (3+1+1) so no work is guaranteed, but in an average year BAS will be required to biosecure 50 x 20ft shipping containers. The majority of this work will take place at Harwich Port over a few days in October or November. Normally this would be during normal working hours but in exceptional circumstances out of hours working (such as evenings and weekends) might be required. Suppliers are required to refer to the attached documentation that provides further details around the requirements covered under this engagement notice. There is no commitment at this stage that the above-mentioned opportunity will proceed in its current format.
